The first observation of an atomic scale noncontact AFM image of MoO3(010)
We have observed MoO3 (010) surface on an atomic level by NC-AFM(Noncontact atomic force microscopy) for the first time. White arrays with 0.40 and 0.37 nm dimensions along [100] and [001], respectively, were observed, which corresponded to the topmost oxygen atoms of MoO3 (010).
