Abstract:

   During past decade the AFM based nanomanipulation has been focus of attention as the promising nano fabrication approach. The main challenge in this process is the real-time monitoring. Consequently, the dynamic models have been proposed as a solution to the existing challenge. In the modeling approach the magnitudes of the forces are proportional to the stiffness coefficients of cantilevers. The precise calculation of these coefficients has been introduced in numerous works. The proposed stiffness coefficients for the V-shaped cantilevers fail to present in all commercial cantilever geometry. The geometrical deviation has a considerable impact on the magnitude of stiffness coefficients. Therefore, in this paper the existing model has been modified to include the commercial cantilever and take into account the effect of geometry variation. FEM simulation has been used to investigate the effect of geometry change and the results of these simulations have been exerted to the model which resulted in proposed comprehensive model. The proposed new stiffness model covers a wide range of commercial V-shape cantilevers and makes the process more practical.

Parallel beam approximation for V-shaped atomic force, microscope cantilevers

Due to its simplicity, the parallel beam approximation (PBA) is commonly used in the analytical evaluation of the spring constant of V-shaped atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers. However, the point of contention regarding the validity of the PBA is as yet an unresolved issue, which has been exacerbated by some recent contradictory reports. In this paper, we present a detailed investigatio...

Resistance to Flow in a V-Shaped Bottom Channel

Water flow in open channels is always subject to the resistance to flow and energy dissipation. For design purposes, one of the needed variables is the hydraulic resistance coefficient. For this mean, the influence of cross-sectional shape together with secondary flow cells and lateral distribution of true boundary shear stress have not yet been fully explored. This paper surveys the number of ...
