    Abstract

    Atomic force microscopy has been used to image the surface structure of a range of gibbsite (Al(OH)3) crystals. A variety of microtopographies has been imaged on the (001) plane, and sub-nanometer detail has been observed on flat areas that is commensurate with the known bulk structure of the solid.
