The micro-mechanics of single molecules studied with atomic force microscopy

The atomic force microscope (AFM) in its force-measuring mode is capable of effecting displacements on an angstrom scale (10 Å= 1 nm) and measuring forces of a few piconewtons. Recent experiments have applied AFM techniques to study the mechanical properties of single biological polymers. These prop...
