Revisiting contact potential difference in electrostatic force microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Physics Communications
Understanding the tip–substrate interaction in Electrostatic Force Microscopy (EFM) is essential for the quantitative analysis of experimental data. In this work, the role of the contact potential difference ( V _CPD ) between tip and substrate, both ...

Epitaxial Graphene and Graphene–Based Devices Studied by Electrical Scanning Probe Microscopy

open access: yesCrystals, 2013
We present local electrical characterization of epitaxial graphene grown on both Si- and C-faces of 4H-SiC using Electrostatic Force Microscopy and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in ambient conditions and at elevated temperatures. These techniques provide

Spatially resolved electronic inhomogeneities of graphene due to subsurface charges

open access: yes, 2011
We probe the local inhomogeneities in the electronic properties of exfoliated graphene due to the presence of charged impurities in the SiO2 substrate using a combined scanning tunneling and electrostatic force microscope.

Formation of Conductive DNA-Based Nanowires via Conjugation of dsDNA with Cationic Peptide

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2017
A novel conductive DNA-based nanomaterial, DNA-peptide wire, composed of a DNA core and a peripheral peptide layer, is presented. The electrical conductivity of the wire is found to be at least three orders in magnitude higher than that of native double ...

Supramolecular ionics: electric charge partition within polymers and other non-conducting solids

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2001
Electrostatic phenomena in insulators have been known for the past four centuries, but many related questions are still unanswered, for instance: which are the charge-bearing species in an electrified organic polymer, how are the charges spatially ...

A method to extract pure Raman spectrum of epitaxial graphene on SiC

open access: yes, 2013
A method is proposed to extract pure Raman spectrum of epitaxial graphene on SiC by using a Non-negative Matrix Factorization. It overcomes problems of negative spectral intensity and poorly resolved spectra resulting from a simple subtraction of a SiC ...
