Combining Atomic Force Microscopy with Confocal Microscopy

Combining Atomic Force Microscopy and Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopy

Introduction The visualisation of sample elements using various forms of microscopy relies not only on magnification but also contrast. As such, differing forms of microscopy offer different information about a sample. Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) provides information about the 3D location of a particular, labelled component within a sample and has the additional advantage of exclu...

Two-Photon Microscopy for Deep Tissue Imaging of Living Specimens

Introduction Two-photon microscopy (2PM) provides threedimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) (x, y, z, t) imaging in living specimens or under experimental physiological conditions very close to live. In conjunction with fluorescent labels, 2PM provides a powerful means of investigating the relationships between structure and function at the microscopic level that are key to understanding ...

Confocal Microscope Studies of MoS2 Layer Thickness

We have been studying micro-luminescence of various exfoliated MoS2 akes using a confocal microscope. A crucial issue is to determine thickness of the investigated layer. The common way using atomic force microscopy, electron microscopy or the Raman spectroscopy requires moving the sample out from the confocal microscope experimental setup and looking for a particular exfoliated ake hidden amon...
