New Atomic Force Microscope peeks into the world of nanobionics
28 August, 2008
The continued development of Atomic Force Microscopy – a technique that enables individual atoms to be “visualised” – is a critical element of nanotechnology.
“It is one thing to build nanostructures and use them in areas such as medical bionics, but to probe and visualise the nanodomain is then critical,” Executive Research Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science and Director of the Intelligent Polymer Research Institute (IPRI), Professo...
