Abstract

The possibility of using a glass capillary as a probe of an atomic-force microscope operating in a hybrid mode is demonstrated. Examples of obtaining a topographic image of the surface with a height resolution of 20 nm, as well as the use of this probe in microfluidics, are presented. The possibility of moving droplets of a subfemtoliter volume without touching the surface on which the droplet lies using this probe is shown.
