Characterization of nanoscale electronic materials using novel methods for scan probe microscopy
… transport. We used novel methods for Electric Force Microscopy, Near Field Infrared Microscopy, and Microwave Impedance Microscopy (MIM) to map non-uniform doping and the free carrier distribution in the bulk Gallium Arsenide nanowires. Our results revealed cyclical doping inhomogeneity in …

Theoretical and Experimental Atomic Force Microscopy Investigations of Staphylococcus aureus
… serotype 5 or 8 capsular polysaccharides. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to investigate three serotypically different S. aureus strains, two of which express capsular polysaccharides, in air and phosphate buffered saline. Adhesion and compliance were determined through normal force …

Proposed testing method for foam padding
… cell which is calibrated with an oscilloscope, a curve of the force applied over time will be recorded for each test run. From this force curve, the peak force, total impulse, and energy dissipated were calculated for each collision. By comparing these metrics across different foam padding …

The aerodynamics of a diffuser equipped bluff body in ground effect
… tunnels equipped with moving belts included mean forces, surface pressures, oilflow visualisation, laser doppler anemometry and particle image velocimetry. The 3D diffuser flow field has been measured for the first time and the results are used to analyse the behaviour of the diffuser in ground …

Nano-indentation and Nano-scale imaging using atomic force microscopy: from single cell to single molecule
… mechanisms of these diseases. By using the AFM force spectroscopy mode the elasticity of the nuclear region and cytoplasm region under native conditions were measured. By means of the Hertz model the force curve data were analyzed. We found the HeLa cell carrying GFP-TMEM43-pS358L showed a …

The fundamental interactions between deposits and surfaces at nanoscale using atomic force microscopy
… with different contact surfaces using atomic force microscopy (AFM). In this thesis, AFM has been employed to measure: (i) The adhesive interactions between a colloidal silica microparticle and stainless steel, PTFE-coated stainless steel, glass and ceramic surfaces, in the presence of a …
