Abstract:
SINCE its invention in 1986, the atomic force microscope (AFM) has revolutionised the field of nanotechnology and nanoscience. It is a tool that has enabled research into areas of medicine, advanced materials, biology, chemistry and physics. However due to its low frame rate it is a tool that has been limited to imaging small areas using a time lapse technique. It has only been in recent years that the frame rate of the device has been increased in a tool known as high-speed AFM (HSAFM). This increased frame rate allows, for the first time, biological processes to be viewed in real time or mac

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the manufacture of carbon nanotube atomic force microscope (NTAFM) probes and their employment in the high-resolution imaging of biological macromolecules. Attention was focused initially on synthesis of carbon nanotubes and the refinement of the growth processes to obtain nanotubes of controlled dimensions. These growth processes were subsequently used to grow nanotubes directly onto AFM tips, followed by attempts at controlling the dimensions of these directly-grown nanotubes. Individually fabricated NTAFM probes are also described, along with attempts to optimise the st

Abstract:
Exocytosis is a fundamental cellular process where membrane-bound secretory granules from within the cell fuse with the plasma membrane to form fusion pore openings through which they expel their contents. This mechanism occurs constitutively in all eukaryotic cells and is responsible for the regulation of numerous bodily functions. Despite intensive study on exocytosis the fusion pore is poorly understood. In this research micro-fabrication techniques were integrated with biology to facilitate the study of fusion pores from cells in the anterior pituitary using the atomic force microsc

Laterally, the fibrils grew in steps of ~4 nm suggesting a two-step mechanism. In a first step, collagen molecules associated together.
