AFM image of the cellulose-water interface.

Caption

(A) AFM image of structural defects on CNC surface, acquired in water. (B) High-resolution AFM topography image of an individual CNC surface, revealing the details of the molecular organization at the interface. (C) The reconstructed image of the surface in panel B, obtained by executing inverse 2D-FFT spectra. (D and E) 2D vertical ∆f maps of the cellulose-water interface, indicating the structurally ordered water layers.
