Chapter 2.5, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
The scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) are the most powerful microscopes. Biological molecules can be visualized using this SPMs. A probe that appears like a needle is used in this microscopy. Magnification of 100 million times can be achieved using this microscope. This microscope was founded in 1980.
