Electronegativity determination of individual surface atoms by atomic force microscopy
Electronegativity is a fundamental concept in chemistry. Despite its importance, the experimental determination has been limited only to ensemble-averaged techniques. Here, we report a methodology to evaluate the electronegativity of individual surface atoms by atomic force microscopy. By measuring bond energies on the surface atoms using different tips, we find characteristic linear relations ...
متن کاملSecondary structure of alpha-synuclein oligomers: characterization by raman and atomic force microscopy.
Formation of alpha-synuclein aggregates is proposed to be a crucial event in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Large soluble oligomeric species are observed as probable intermediates during fibril formation and these, or related aggregates, may constitute the toxic element that triggers neurodegeneration. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of information regarding the structure and compos...
متن کاملAcoustic microscopy by atomic force microscopy
We have constructed an atomic force microscope enabling one to image the topography of a sample, and to monitor simultaneously ultrasonic surface vibrations in the MHz range. For detection of the distribution of the ultrasonic vibration amplitude, a part of the position-sensing light beam reflected from the cantilever is directed to an external knife-edge detector. Acoustic images taken on the ...
متن کاملAtomic Force Microscopy Application in Biological Research: A Review Study
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a three-dimensional topographic technique with a high atomic resolution to measure surface roughness. AFM is a kind of scanning probe microscope, and its near-field technique is based on the interaction between a sharp tip and the atoms of the sample surface. There are several methods and many ways to modify the tip of the AFM to investigate surface properties, ...
متن کاملAnalyzing focal adhesion structure by atomic force microscopy.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) can produce high-resolution topographic images of biological samples in physiologically relevant environments and is therefore well suited for the imaging of cellular surfaces. In this work we have investigated focal adhesion complexes by combined fluorescence microscopy and AFM. To generate high-resolution AFM topographs of focal adhesions, REF52 (rat embryo fibro...
