We report the detection of protein molecules with nanofabricated pores using the resistive pulse sensing method. A 20-nm -thick silicon nitride membrane with a nanofabricated pore measuring about 55 nm in diameter separated an electrolyte cell into two com ...
The excellent mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTS) are driving research into the creation of new strong, tough nanocomposite systems. Here, the first evidence of toughening mechanisms operating in carbon-nanotube-reinforced ceramic composites i ...
The general idea of Nanotechnology is not new – it has been studied since Nobel laureate Richard Feynman outlined the idea in a speech in 1959 – but it's only recently that the progress carried out in the various fields of material, optic, physic and engin ...
The ligand shell that coats, protects, and imparts a large number of properties to gold nanoparticles is a 2-D self-assembled monolayer wrapped around a 3-D metallic core. Here we present a study of the molecular packing of ligand shells on gold nanopartic ...
The focused electron beam induced deposition process is a promising technique for nano and micro patterning. Electrons can be focused in sub-angström dimensions, which allows atomic-scale resolution imaging, analysis, and processing techniques. Before the ...
The Derjaguin approximation states that the interaction force between two curved surfaces is proportional to their effective radius, whereby the inverse effective radius is the arithmetic mean of the inverse curvature radii of the surfaces involved. The pr ...
Defining mesoscopic length scales for deformed nanostructures requires a close coupling of theory and experiment. One approach to this is to mechanically probe single crystal nanospheres of the same size that can be evaluated computationally. This involves ...
Recently electrically conducting SPM probes were used as read/write sensor of magneto-resistive nanopillars and ferroelectric domains in the development of >1 Tb/inch2 data storage. Since metal coated (platinum (Pt) or Pt/iridium) silicon (Si) probes are n ...
During the sliding of an atomic force microscope (AFM) tip on a rough hydrophilic surface, water capillary bridges form between the tip and the asperities of the sample surface. These water bridges give rise to capillary and friction forces. We show that t ...
Gradual clogging of the apertures of nanostencils used as miniature shadow masks in metal evaporations can be reduced by coating the stencil with self-assembled monolayers (SAM). This is quantified by the dimensions (height and volume) of gold features obt ...
