High-speed AFM height spectroscopy reveals µs-dynamics of unlabeled biomolecules

The dynamics of biomolecules can occur over a wide range of time and length scales. Here the authors develop a high-speed AFM height spectroscopy method to directly detect the motion of unlabeled molecules at Angstrom spatial and microsecond temporal resolution.
