Modeling of the intermolecular Force-Induced Adhesion in Freestanding Nanostructures Made of Nano-beams
Among the intermolecular interactions, the Casimir and van der Waals forces are the most important forces that highly affect the behavior of nanostructures. This paper studies the effect of such forces on the adhesion of cantilever freestanding nanostructures. The nanostructures are made of a freestanding nano-beam which is suspended between two upper and lower conductive surfaces. The linear s...
متن کاملDirect observation of barrier-limited folding of BBL by single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
One controversial area in protein folding mechanisms is whether some small, ultra-fast-folding proteins exist in distinct native and denatured state ensembles, separated by an energy barrier, or if there is a continuum of states between native and denatured. In theory, the simplest way of distinguishing between single-state barrierless or "downhill" folding and conventional separate state foldi...
متن کاملUltrafast intermolecular energy transfer in heavy water.
We report on a study of the vibrational energy relaxation and resonant vibrational (Förster) energy transfer of the OD vibrations of D2O and mixtures of D2O and H2O using femtosecond mid-infrared spectroscopy. We observe the lifetime of the OD vibrations of bulk D2O to be 400 +/- 30 fs. The rate of the Förster energy transfer is measured via the dynamics of the anisotropy of the OD vibrational ...
متن کاملEnergy loss triggered by atomic-scale lateral force.
We perform bimodal atomic force microscopy measurements on a Br-doped NaCl (001) surface to investigate the mechanisms behind frequency shift and energy dissipation contrasts. The peculiar pattern of the dissipated energy in the torsional channel, related to frictional processes, is increased at the positions of Br impurities, otherwise indistinguishable from Cl ions in the other measured chann...

of the extent of binding. This effect (known informally as "Chip dip") is illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7 which concern the ethidium bromide/tRNA system. 41 In this case the free ethidium bromide has a lifetime of 1.86 nsec and a rotational relaxation time of 0.54 nsec. On binding the PhetRNA Phe the lifetime increases to 26 nsec and the rotational relaxation increases to 136 nsec. A single rotati...
