Figure 4 from “Converse flexoelectricity yields large piezoresponse force microscopy signals in non-piezoelectric materials” by Amir Abdollahi et al.: Study of converse flexoelectricity induced at the tip apex of an atomic force microscope cantilever as a function of the applied force. a Effective piezoelectric coefficient as a function of applied force for the SrTiO3 crystal. Filled squares correspond to the values obtained after the simulation. Empty circles correspond to the experimental values obtained with a NANOSENSORS CDT-FM AFM tip with a cantilever of medium stiffness (k ≈ 2.8 Nm−1) coated with doped diamond. The error bars correspond to the error of the linear fitting of the experimental data, which correlates the measured electromechanical amplitude of oscillation Δh with the Vac applied voltage. b The effective contact radius a scales with the force, and is determined by the tip radius. The experimental tip radius is obtained after the measurement of the nanoscale electromechanical response from the scanning electron microscopy image of the used tip. In this case, the tip radius of the diamond coated tip is 105 nm, and is observed to keep a spherical shape after the measurements

NANOSENSORS™ conductive diamond coated CDT-NCLR AFM probes were used for the piezoresponse force microscopy ( PFM ) on non-piezoelectric dielectrics described in this brand new… Read More »Converse flexoelectricity yields large piezoresponse force microscopy signals in non-piezoelectric materials

Figure 6 from «Selective oxidation of B800 bacteriochlorophyll a in photosynthetic light-harvesting protein LH2” by Y. Saga et al.: FM-AFM images of native LH2 (A) and oxidized LH2 (B) adsorbed on mica taken in 20 mM Tris buffer containing 150 mM NaCl (pH 8.0). Left: wide images. Middle: locally enlarged images of single LH2 proteins. Right: overlapped height-profiles of ten proteins. NANOSENSORS PPP-NCHAuD AFM probes were used.

Engineering chlorophyll (Chl) pigments that are bound to photosynthetic light-harvesting proteins is one promising strategy to regulate spectral coverage for photon capture and to improve… Read More »Selective oxidation of B800 bacteriochlorophyll a in photosynthetic light-harvesting protein LH2
