Image of the Month: Atomic Nanomanipulation using Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy

3D reconstruction from a scanning tunnelling microscope image of a germanium surface covered with atomic platinum chains. Image size is 15 x 15 nm2, the bias voltage was -1.45 V and the tunnelling current was 0.50 nA. Read the article by Arie van Houselt et al. in the March 2008 issue of Microscopy and Analysis.

Look out for our next print issue

The May 2008 issue will include:
Articles on: Confocal LM and SEM of wood-adhesive interface; Continuum laser source for fluorescence microscopy; Extended depth of field in LM imaging using image processing software; Enhancement of confocal fluorescence images of neutrophils by magnetic fields.
