Nanoscale probe reveals interactions between surfaces and single molecules

Thursday, November 18, 2010 - 13:21 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists have developed a tool to study nanoscale interactions. The device is a dual scanning tunneling and microwave-frequency probe that is capable of measuring the interactions between single molecules and the surfaces to which the molecules are attached. The information provided by the probe focuses on what the limits of nanoscale electronics will be, rather than targeting devices for production.
