Description
Summary:This first book to focus on all principles and aspects of AFM in liquid phase is perfectly structured, making it easy-to-follow for non-AFM specialists. At the same time, it is an excellent introduction for researchers wishing to use this important technique for evaluating biological material and biological applications. From the contents: * AFM: Basic concept * Dynamic modes in liquids * Force spectroscopy * Forces in liquids * Single molecule force spectroscopy * High resolution imaging of biological material * Imaging of force-distance curves * High speed AFM for observing dynamic processes * Theory and fundamentals * Combination of AFM with optical methods * Biological applications * Electrochemical AFM * Manipulation and lithography An optimum balance for chemists, physicists, materials scientists, and biologists, as well as analytical and medicinal chemists.
