Manufacturing technology designed to interface natural molecular components with a solid surface is fundamental in building higher-order complex functional structures from the nanoscale domain. Here, we present top- down fabrication approaches that define and guide the growth of natural molecular components, such as inorganic ions and proteins, and investigate how external control parameters can influence...
Titin, with a massive single chain of 3-4MDa and multiple modular motifs, spans the half-sarcomere of skeletal and cardiac muscles and serves important, multifaceted functions. In recent years, titin has become a favored subject of single molecule observations by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and laser optical trap (LOT). Here we review these single titin molecule extension studies with an emphasis...
The surface morphology and molecular arrangement of a Kevlar aramid fibre (coded Fibre A, from E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Co.) were studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Pleats parallel to the fibre axis have been observed. At nanometre scale, the polymer chains display several different arrangements from the reported crystalline structures for the bulk polymer especially in the polymer chain...
