Ultrahigh-resolution imaging of water networks by atomic force microscopy

Ultrahigh-resolution imaging of water networks by atomic force microscopy

The structure of water in the first layer on surfaces is essential to our understanding of various phenomena, such as surface wettability and heterogeneous catalysis. Here, the authors use atomic force microscopy with a CO-functionalized tip to image water defects on copper surface at atomic resolut...
