Welcome

NanoChemistry & Molecular Systems

The group of Prof. Anne-Sophie Duwez

Using the Atomic Force Microscopy to study the operation of small synthetic molecules...

...one molecule at a time!

Our research is concerned with the development of probes and technologies to interface single small functional molecules with AFM. For 15 years, we have developed the first examples of single-molecule force spectroscopy on small synthetic molecules to study their operation.
