Fascinating Images Reveal Climbing Abilities of Geckos and Spiders

Helium ion technology allows imaging of objects in their natural state

(PresseBox) (Jena, )
Scientists from Lewis and Clark College, working collaboratively with the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN) in the USA have examined the fascinating climbing skills of geckos and spiders using the ORION helium ion microscope from Carl Zeiss. High resolution images displaying unique definition and detail rendition reveal even the finest structures on the feet of these animals. This imaging advances the understanding of how the masterly climbing skills of these creatures are attributable to adhesive forces or, in other words, intermolecular attractions. The secret lies in the fine structure of the tiny hairs, or "setae", that cover the lackjkmzpy ts vgt tgjc.
