Nanotech Microscopy

Individual fluorescently labeled phospholipids (indicated by arrows) in a planar phospholipid bilayer as observed using wide-field single molecule fluorescence microscopy.

Dr. Christoph Naumann's group researches the topics of design and characterization of biofunctionalized substrates and ultrathin "intelligent" biomaterials.
