Quantitative characterization of dielectric properties of nanoparticles using electrostatic force microscopy

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
We use a new method based on Electrostatic Force Microscopy (EFM) to perform quantitative measurements of the dielectric constants of individual carboxylated as well as non-functionalized polystyrene nanospheres. The EFM data record the oscillation phase

Advanced atomic force microscopy-based techniques for nanoscale characterization of switching devices for emerging neuromorphic applications

open access: yesApplied Microscopy, 2021
Neuromorphic systems require integrated structures with high-density memory and selector devices to avoid interference and recognition errors between neighboring memory cells. To improve the performance of a selector device, it is important to understand

Electric force microscopy of induced charges and surface potentials in GaN modified by light and strain [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We have studied molecular beam epitaxy grown GaN films using electric force microscopy to detect sub-1 µm regions of electric field gradient and surface potential variations associated with GaN extended defects.

Electric charge enhancements in carbon nanotubes: Theory and experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present a detailed study of the static enhancement effects of electric charges in micron-length single-walled carbon nanotubes, using theoretically an atomic charge-dipole model and experimentally electrostatic force microscopy.

Electrostatic Force Microscopy Measurement System for Micro-topography of Non-conductive Devices

open access: yesMeasurement Science Review, 2018
A home-made electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) system is described which is directed toward assessment of the microscopic geometry of the surface of specimens made of non-conductive material with a large thickness. This system is based on the variation

Removal of electrostatic artifacts in magnetic force microscopy by controlled magnetization of the tip: application to superparamagnetic nanoparticles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) has been demonstrated as valuable technique for the characterization of magnetic nanomaterials. To be analyzed by MFM techniques, nanomaterials are generally deposited on flat substrates, resulting in an additional ...

Measuring the effect of electrostatic patch potentials in Casimir force experiments

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
The Casimir force is a consequence of quantum electrodynamic fluctuations, which induce interactions between materials. Patch potentials (i.e., spatial variations of electrostatic potentials across a surface) are a concern in measurements of the Casimir ...

Photoelectrical Properties Investigated on Individual Si Nanowires and Their Size Dependence

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2021
Periodically ordered arrays of vertically aligned Si nanowires (Si NWs) are successfully fabricated with controllable diameters and lengths. Their photoconductive properties are investigated by photoconductive atomic force microscopy (PCAFM) on ...

Electrostatic force microscopy of self‐assembled peptide structures

open access: yesScanning, 2011
AbstractIn this report electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) is used to study different peptide self‐assembled structures such as tubes and particles. It is shown that not only geometrical information can be obtained using EFM, but also information about the composition of different structures.
