Atomic force microscopy study of the molecular sieve MnAPO-50.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging of MnAPO-50 reveals multiply-nucleated, elliptical terraces, oriented in registry with the facet edges with step heights ranging from one to six template repeat distances on the [100] facets and terraces with step heights ranging from one to thirty three times the c unit cell parameter on the [001] facets.
