Humbold University Berlin Uses AFM in the Study of Graphenes

The Physics of Macromolecules group of Prof. J.P. Rabe at the Humbold University in Berlin has recently shown the use of AFM in the study of the properties of graphenes. The research was published in Nano Letters 2011, 11 (6), pp 2436-2439. moreNov. 09, 2009

Integration of Electrochemistry and Optics

JPK Instruments announced new electrochemical capabilities for their NanoWizard AFM systems. Electrochemical experiments study redox reactions of substances at a solid-liquid interface. With atomic force microscopy, high-resolution images can be obtained in liquid as the electrochemical reaction progresses. Electrochemistry spans a wide range of fields, from the corrosion of metal surfaces through to the role of protein electron transfer processes in biosensors. more
