Probing viscoelastic response of soft material surfaces at the nanoscale.
We study the interaction between an AFM tip and a soft viscoelastic surface. Using a multifrequency method we measure the amplitude-dependence of the cantilever dynamic force quadratures, which clearly show the effect of finite relaxation time of the viscoelastic surface. A model is introduced which treats the tip and surface as a two-body dynamic problem with a nonlinear interaction depending ...
متن کاملRoughness picture of friction in dry nanoscale contacts
Large-scale molecular-dynamics simulations are performed to study friction in nanoscale single asperity contacts. The modeling system consists of a tip made of H-terminated diamond-like carbon and an H-terminated diamond sample. Simulations are carried out using a reactive bond-order interatomic potential integrated with dispersive interactions. A quantitative agreement in contact pressures and...
متن کاملNanoscale adhesion, friction and wear studies of biomolecules on silane polymer-coated silica and alumina-based surfaces.
Proteins on biomicroelectromechanical systems (BioMEMS) confer specific molecular functionalities. In planar FET sensors (field-effect transistors, a class of devices whose protein-sensing capabilities we demonstrated in physiological buffers), interfacial proteins are analyte receptors, determining sensor molecular recognition specificity. Receptors are bound to the FET through a polymeric int...
متن کاملThermal Transport Mechanisms at Nanoscale Point Contacts
We have experimentally investigated the heat transfer mechanisms at a 90610 nm diameter point contact between a sample and a probe tip of a scanning thermal microscope (SThM). For large heated regions on the sample, air conduction is the dominant tipsample heat transfer mechanism. For micro/nano devices with a submicron localized heated region, the air conduction contribution decreases, whereas...
متن کاملSolid friction between soft filaments.
Any macroscopic deformation of a filamentous bundle is necessarily accompanied by local sliding and/or stretching of the constituent filaments. Yet the nature of the sliding friction between two aligned filaments interacting through multiple contacts remains largely unexplored. Here, by directly measuring the sliding forces between two bundled F-actin filaments, we show that these frictional fo...
