Muscovite mica is a widely used substrate because of its flatness. The large scale anomalous patterns of muscovite have been discovered by atomic force microscopy (AFM). These patterns distribute around the defects of the muscovite surface. By using different imaging modes and analyzing functions of AFM, these extraordinary patterns are thoroughly characterized, and it was revealed that some selected regularly aligned patterns mimic 2-D orthorhombic crystal systems surrounding the regular structure. However, such patterned nanostructures have no effects on the template-assisted self-assembly (or epitaxial growth) of a disease-related peptide GAV-9.
白云母因其平整度而成为一种广泛使用的基底。通过原子力显微镜(AFM)发现了白云母的大规模异常图案。这些图案分布在白云母表面的缺陷周围。通过使用AFM的不同成像模式和分析功能,对这些特殊图案进行了全面表征,结果表明,一些选定的规则排列图案模仿了围绕规则结构的二维正交晶系。然而,这种图案化的纳米结构对与疾病相关的肽GAV-9的模板辅助自组装(或外延生长)没有影响。
