We previously posted a link showing atomic defects in the Mica lattice taken in TappingMode (http://goo.gl/wvVFi). Indeed this is routine for us to do on our different platforms, on multiple samples. If you are interested in these types of experiments, please contact me offline so I can arrange for you...

PeakForce Tapping sequence highlighting unique lattice defects, as well as adsorbates. In this sequence you can also see 2 different adatoms appear on the surface and then disappear in subsequent frames.

I posted this answer to a question on another forum, and thought I would repeat it here. You can see the question at: http://goo.gl/yLoCF *** Thanks for your comments, and we, along with several others who posted in these forums, are in agreement that atomic resolution imaging using Tapping in fluid...

Another great advantage of PeakForce Tapping, particularly when imaging at the atomic scale, is you can obtain a forces curve for any pixel in the image. Here are two examples of force distance curves collected during Peak Force Tapping imaging. One set of approach / retract curves was collected on calcite...

Tapping example on Mica using the MultiMode 8 and a SNL+ cantilever (60um long)

I have found that the image quality of adsorbates on mica (e.g. DNA molecules) depends on the purity of the water used to prepare solutions and to rinse the mica disks. I like to use water from a local Milli-Q system, but sometimes the water quality is not good enough. Can anyone suggest a commercial...
