Scanning Probe Microscopy of Soft Matter: Fundamentals and Practices

By Vladimir V. Tsukruk and Srikanth Singamaneni

Well-structured and adopting a pedagogical approach, this self-contained monograph covers the fundamentals of scanning probe microscopy, showing how to use the techniques for investigating physical and chemical properties on the nanoscale and how they can be used for a wide range of soft materials. It concludes with a section on the latest techniques in nanomanipulation and patterning. Prof. Tsukruk is an internationally renowned leading expert in the field, and explains the topic in an easy-to-follow style. This first book to focus on the applications is a must-have for both newcomers and established researchers using scanning probe microscopy in soft matter research.
