Nanocrystalline diamond AFM tips for chemical force spectroscopy: fabrication and photochemical functionalization†
The chemical modification of nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) atomic force microscope (AFM) tips was investigated and used for chemical force spectroscopy (CFS). In contrast to common chemical modification routes for gold or silicon AFM tips, this method creates stable C–C bonding to attach functional moieties to the NCD tip. There have been no previous studies reporting the chemical functionaliza...
متن کاملAttractive optical forces from blackbody radiation.
Blackbody radiation around hot objects induces ac Stark shifts of the energy levels of nearby atoms and molecules. These shifts are roughly proportional to the fourth power of the temperature and induce a force decaying with the third power of the distance from the object. We explicitly calculate the resulting attractive blackbody optical dipole force for ground state hydrogen atoms. Surprising...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis of Single-Molecule AFM Force Spectroscopy Curves
We develop a statistical framework for the quantitative characterization and analysis of force-extension curves obtained from single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) measurements. We apply this methodology to force-extension data obtained for elastinlike polypeptides (ELPs) with precisely engineered molecular architectures, where we demonstrate that our approach enables SMFS to be used to stu...
متن کاملSingle-protein Afm-based Force Spectroscopy Nyu-csmr
The recently developed single molecule force spectroscopy enables the detailed study of the mechanisms of protein unfolding and refolding under a stretching force. It has revealed many signatures of complexity of the underlying energy landscape that were previously overlooked in bulk experiments. For example, the broad distribution of unfolding times of the protein ubiquitin has been suggestive...
متن کاملSingle-Molecule Force Spectroscopy on Poly(acrylic acid) by AFM
The mechanical properties of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were investigated on the molecular scale by using AFM. PAA was adsorbed onto a glass substrate and then picked up at one point of the chain with the AFM tip and stretched. The deformation of single PAA chains under tension was measured and modeled by a modified freely-joint-chain model. The length distribution of loops and tails of adsorbed ...
