AFM stands for atomic force microscopy and is a type of scanning probe microscope (SPM). SPMs use a probe to evaluate local characteristics such as friction, magnetism, and height. AFM acquires an image by raster-scanning the probe across a small sample area, while simultaneously assessing the local
A new paper published in the Journal of Polymer Science has investigated the synthesis of new ionic liquid methacrylates and dimethacrylates.
