Casimir‐Lifshitz Optical Resonators: A New Platform for Exploring Physics at the Nanoscale

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2024.
Levitation, or trapping, of a flat mirror at a certain distance above another flat reflecting surface, as a result of the compensation of attractive gravitational forces by a quantum fluctuation induced repulsive force, leads to the formation of Casimir‐Lifshitz optical resonators, which have opened the possibility to explore a wide range of physical ...

Diffusion equation for spreading and replenishment in submonolayer lubricant film

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
In magnetic hard disk drives, it is important to evaluate head wear durability in relation to lubricant layer because the head-disk spacing has to be reduced to ~1nm to achieve a high density recording above 1 Tb/in2.

Role of Interfacial Water and Applied Potential on Friction at Au(111) Surfaces

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
The tribological properties between an AFM tip and a Au(111) surface in an aqueous environment is influenced by an applied electrical potential. Using lateral force microscopy, we measure the resulting friction force, while simultaneously applying a pre ...

Nanotribology Results Show that DNA Forms a Mechanically Resistant 2D Network in Metaphase Chromatin Plates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a previous study, we found that metaphase chromosomes are formed by thin plates, and here we have applied atomic force microscopy (AFM) and friction force measurements at the nanoscale (nanotribology) to analyze the properties of these planar ...
