Quantitative Elasticity of Flexible Polymer Chains Using Interferometer-Based AFM

Quantitative Elasticity of Flexible Polymer Chains Using Interferometer-Based AFM

We estimate the elasticity of single polymer chains using atomic force microscope (AFM)-based oscillatory experiments. An accurate estimate of elasticity using AFM is limited by assumptions in describing the dynamics of an oscillating cantilever. Here, we use a home-built fiber-interferometry-based...
