(a) Topography image recorded in contact mode under a normal force of 25 nN. Arrow indicates an area enlarged on (b) with two resolved DNA strands running nearly parallel to each other at a distance of 10 nm, as visualized by the inserted cross section. (c) Intermittent contact mode topography image acquired a few minutes after (a) with the same tip. (d) Intermittent contact mode phase contrast image of the same area.
