PeakForce QNM: Easier Imaging<br />

First AFM Investigation of <strong>the</strong> Frustule<br />

• The frustule is a filtration wall allowing communication between <strong>the</strong> sea water and <strong>the</strong> inner<br />

• These are <strong>the</strong> first images of <strong>the</strong> frustle by AFM.<br />

• Additionally, QNM channels provide quantitative mechanical properties, and show nice<br />

contrast between <strong>the</strong> pores, <strong>the</strong> rings & <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong> frustule.<br />
