Abstract

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has provided a new and powerful tool in the investigation of single atoms, molecules and their interactions. Single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) is a force measurement based on AFM. A review is given on the development of single molecule polymer force studies by AFM-based SMFS in recent years.
