We have used magnetic alternating current mode atomic force microscopy (MAC-AFM) to investigate the formation of supported phospholipid bilayers (SPB) by the method of vesicle fusion. The systems studied were dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC) on mica and mica modified with 3-aminopropyl-triethoxy-silane (APTES)
