Langmuir Paper Accepted

Mike Serpe’s paper, “Time and Distance Dependence of Reversible Polymer Bridging Followed by Single Molecule Force Spectroscopy” has been accepted for publication in Langmuir. The paper is the first to report work done on our new AFM, built in collaboration with Monica Rivera and Rob Clark in Duke’s Pratt School of Engineering. Using the new AFM, Mike is able to observe, in real time, reversibly assembled polymer chains extend from one surface and “grab” another.
