Conventional scientific wisdom has long held that high-resolution images of liquid surfaces cannot be created. In defiance of this wisdom, however, an MSD team of Miquel Salmeron, Frank Ogletree, X.D. Xiao, and graduate student Jun Hu report have been able to create maps of liquid surfaces showing features as small as 200 angstroms, or two-hundred millionths of a meter. The key is a novel approach to the use of an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM).
The researchers describe their technique, which they call polarization force microscopy, in a paper published in the journal Science. An AFM produces images through the use of a sharp tip, almost like that of a phonograph stylus, which is scanned over a sample. A computer maps the path of the tip, generating a 3-D image.
On a solid surface, the AFM tip "touches" the sample with a force so slight that it does not dislodge even a single atom on the surface of a solid. (In a phonograph needle, about one gram of force is applied on the stylus; in the AFM, the load on the tip is about one ten-millionth of a gram). On a liquid surface, however, the tip of an AFM sinks because of capillary forces, and therefore, no image is obtained.
"Having imaged surfaces all my life," Salmeron says, "I knew that imaging liquid was taboo. We haven't done it because it has been (thought to be) impossible."
The team overcame this barrier by inventing an imaging technique in which the AFM tip flies over the surface. First, the tip is coated with a thin skin of metal to make it conductive. Then, an electrical voltage is applied to the tip to create a concentrated electrical field at its apex. When the tip approaches the liquid surface being imaged, it polarizes the substrate, creating an attractive force between the two. The tip bends toward the surface and--as if flying over the liquid--its angstrom-size displacements are recorded and translated into a topographic image.
"We fly the tip over the liquid at an altitude of 200 angstroms," says Salmeron. "We can't see individual atoms, which are separated by about two angstroms. But we can see the shape of the liquid film, and learn how a liquid wets a surface."
Imaging liquid surfaces at high resolution will make it possible, Salmeron says, to resolve questions that are of fundamental importance in physics, chemistry, and biology. For example, water films alter the surface properties and reactivity of solids, and are critical to biology in terms of ion transport.
"At the atomic scale, we really don't understand wetting, or the mechanics of how a liquid wets a surface," Salmeron says. " Problems involving washing, rinsing, corrosion--they all rely on this mystery of how liquids interact with solids."
Water, the only substance on Earth naturally present as a liquid, solid, and a gas, is the first liquid to be studied by the MSD research team. Models have been developed to theorize how it condenses and evaporates, but these processes have never been investigated at the molecular level.
Using their polarization force microscopy technique, the MSD researchers have discovered that the atomic architecture underlying condensation differs depending upon the humidity. Their images revealed that, at below 20-25 percent humidity, water vapor condenses as a fluid. Having no particular shape, it covers the surface uniformly.
When the humidity rises above 25 percent, the picture changes. Single-molecule-tall islands of condensation form. These islands are solid in character, have a polygonal shape, and possess a crystalline structure. In other words, they are room-temperature ice.
"We know this," Salmeron says, "because liquid has no shape, whereas solids have shape. The angles of these polygons also are the same that ice makes. Beyond that, if you punch the surface with the tip of the microscope, you literally break the ice. And that's what the images show. We see a system of cracks."
When the humidity rises about 40 percent, multiple layers of water molecules begin condensing.
"Finally, we have tools to explore one of the enduring mysteries of nature," says Salmeron. "Now, we can see how liquids interact with solids."
The Summer Laboratory Research Fellowship program, coordinated by Laurel Egenberger, currently has 51 students from U.S. universities, and three from abroad, who work alongside LBNL researchers, actively participating in their research projects. The students' schedules also include guest lectures, peer presentations, and tours of different areas of the Lab and other nearby research facilities.
"We are trying to introduce them to as many facets of the research environment as possible, including giving presentations and reporting on their own research," says assistant program coordinator Nancy Sallee.
At the end of their 10-week fellowship, the students present their research accomplishments to the LBNL community in a poster session in the cafeteria. All Laboratory personnel are invited to attend the session on Tuesday, Aug. 8, between 3 and 5 p.m.
High school program
LBNL also hosts 20 local student researchers from high schools throughout the Bay Area. They participate in the Student Research Program, coordinated by CSEE's Marva Wilkins. These students, who are 11th and 12th graders and college freshmen, also work with mentors, usually on scientific projects but occasionally in administrative settings.
The program targets populations who are under-represented in science--African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans and women. At the end of their 8-week internship, they will also participate in a poster session to report their work and experiences at LBNL. The presentation will be held between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 11, on the cafeteria lawn.
The High School Honors Program, organized by CSEE's Eileen Engel (see Currents, July 28), also relies on the participation of various researchers, although it is not a mentoring program.
If you would like to be a mentor or perhaps already have a student working with you and would like more information about any of these programs, contact CSEE at X5511.
The committee also announced the relocation of the Ergonomics Display Center (formerly the Ergonomics Lab) to Bldg. 51-200E. Center hours are 8 a.m. - 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. The center has a variety of ergonomic equipment and accessories on display.
In addition, the chair loaner program has been reactivated. Any employee who would like to test an ergonomic chair may borrow a chair for a trial period of up to two weeks. Chairs and loaner forms are available at the Ergonomics Display Center.
For more information, contact Ervette Moore at EPMoore@lbl.gov or X6135.
All radiation workers and escorted visitors to Radiation Controlled Areas (such as the Advanced Light Source or the 88-Inch Cyclotron) must obtain a dosimeter before entering one of these areas. The first step is to obtain a Dosimetry Request Form (formerly Radiation Worker Form) from their escort/sponsor, the Reception Center (Bldg. 65), or the Dosimetry Office (Bldg. 90-0026).
For more information, contact the Dosimetry Office at X7497.

The employees, members of Division Director Sung-Ho Kim's research group, spent Saturday, July 18, sawing, spackling, and hammering with the East Bay Habitat for Humanity at a site on 105th Street. The East Bay chapter is one of more than 1,000 Habitat affiliates nationwide that help low-income residents build their own housing.
"It was nice to work for such a good cause," said Structural Biology's Rosie Kim, one of the volunteers. "It was also good for the group. Working closely outside the lab, you get to chit-chat and to know each other in a different way."
Habitat for Humanity was founded in Georgia in 1968, with a philosophy that the economically disadvantaged "need capital, not charity, and co-workers, not caseworkers." Since then, the organization has helped put up more than 25,000 homes worldwide. Its most visible volunteer has been former President Jimmy Carter, who has hammered nails for the organization here and abroad.
The East Bay Habitat for Humanity hopes to finish 18 homes in 1995 with the help of individual and group volunteers. For information about monthly orientations, call 251-6304.
These include staying in a cool place, using a fan to circulate air, taking cool showers, drinking plenty of water, taking appropriate breaks, wearing proper clothing, staying in good shape, eating wisely, and knowing the special risks (some medications, diabetes, excess weight, alcohol, etc.). You should also know the warning signs of heat stress and what to do about them:
Life Sciences proposal specialist Jerry Kekos, his wife Carol, and their son Bret proudly announce the birth of a baby girl, who is as yet unnamed, on July 26. She was 7 pounds and 19 inches at birth.
DOE Human Genome Distinguished Post-Doctoral Fellow Soo-in (Stuart) Hwang, who works in the Resource for Molecular Cytogenetics, and his wife Cammie welcomed daughter Carly on July 7. She was 7 pounds 7 ounces, and 19 inches at birth.
