Advances in High-Speed, Multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy
After decades of technological advancements, high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) has emerged as a powerful technique for visualizing dynamic processes. At the nanoscale, the AFM provides valuable insights into the sample by sensing minute interacti ...
EPFL2024Tuning SAS-6 architecture with monobodies impairs distinct steps of centriole assembly
Georg Fantner, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez, Oliver Hantschel, Virginie Hamel, Niccolo Banterle, Santiago Harald Andany
Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved multi-protein organelles essential for forming cilia and centrosomes. Centriole biogenesis begins with self-assembly of SAS-6 proteins into 9-fold symmetrical ring polymers, which then stack into a cartwheel that sca ...
NATURE RESEARCH2021An atomic force microscope integrated with a helium ion microscope for correlative nanoscale characterization
Georg Fantner, Santiago Harald Andany, Charlène Cécile Geneviève Brillard
In this work, we report on the integration of an atomic force microscope (AFM) into a helium ion microscope (HIM). The HIM is a powerful instrument, capable of imaging and machining of nanoscale structures with sub-nanometer resolution, while the AFM is a ...
BEILSTEIN-INSTITUT2020Batch Fabrication of Multilayer Polymer Cantilevers with Integrated Hard Tips for High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy
Georg Fantner, Nahid Hosseini, Jonathan David Adams, Oliver Peric, Santiago Harald Andany, Matthias Neuenschwander
Increasing the speed of AFM imaging has significant benefits for academic research as well as industrial applications. In many imaging modes, the dynamic response of the cantilever probe dictates the achievable speed. Polymer cantilevers have gained great ...
IEEE2019Integration of sharp silicon nitride tips into high-speed SU8 cantilevers in a batch fabrication process
Georg Fantner, Nahid Hosseini, Jonathan David Adams, Oliver Peric, Santiago Harald Andany, Matthias Neuenschwander
Employing polymer cantilevers has shown to outperform using their silicon or silicon nitride analogues concerning the imaging speed of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in tapping mode (intermittent contact mode with amplitude modulation) by up to one order of ...
Beilstein Institut2019High-speed photothermal off-resonance atomic force microscopy reveals assembly routes of centriolar scaffold protein SAS-6
Pierre Gönczy, Georg Fantner, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Niccolo Banterle, Santiago Harald Andany
The self-assembly of protein complexes is at the core of many fundamental biological processes1, ranging from the polymerization of cytoskeletal elements, such as microtubules2, to viral capsid formation and organelle assembly3. To reach a comprehensive un ...
2018Digitally controlled analog proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller for high-speed scanning probe microscopy
Georg Fantner, Nahid Hosseini, Adrian Pascal Nievergelt, Maja Dukic Pjanic, Santiago Harald Andany, Chen Yang
Nearly all scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) contain a feedback controller, which is used to move the scanner in the direction of the z-axis in order to maintain a constant setpoint based on the tip-sample interaction. The most frequently used feedback con ...
