| Abstract;Nucleic acid base molecules, and single and double stranded DNAs are observed by using scanning tunneling microscopy(STM), which images the ruggedness of sample surface by the probe at atomic-scale by constantly retaining tunneling current, and is able to image double helix structure and each base molecule of DNA. This paper introduces first the principle of STM, history of the observation by STM, and major research results on the observation of DNA and molecular operations. It finally describes the future perspectives of DNA researches by STM. |
