A variety of biopolymers is imaged using noncontact atomic force microscopy. Samples are prepared by aerosol spray deposition of aqueous solutions on freshly cleaved mica followed by air drying. The distributions of contour lengths and chain or fibril thicknesses normal to the mica substrate can be

Atomic force microscopy has been used to study self-assembled structures of two โฃ-hemolysin mutants. For a mutant (โฃHL-H5) that was locked into the prepore state on fluid phase egg-PC membranes, we visualized, for the first time, heptameric prepores and showed that the 7-fold axis in the prepore lie
The surface morphology and metallic contamination of magnetron sputter-etched Si(111) was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and high-resolution Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) as a function of Ar plasma pressure. The root-mean-square roughness (R rms ) of plasma-etched Si de
