We report on the development of an AFM protocol to relate macroscopic measurements of contact angle and surface energy via surface wettability experiments,with microscopic measurements of mechanical p
Many properties of amorphous materials are dictated by the structure and dynamics of the naturally occurring nanoscale free-volume voids in these materials.
Diamond films would exhibit a high surface conductivity after exposure to hydrogen plasma,which is firstly discovered by Landstrass andRaviin 1989 [1].
Although being of major importance for various particle-based applications,the characterization of liquid-borne colloidal surfaces in solution especially with respect to functionalization and ligand e
In recent years,besides photocatalysis,much attention than ever before has focused on the nanoporous TiO2 in the applications such as biomaterials,industrial catalysis etc,in which interfacial propert
Increased availability of nanometal-based products will expose the aquatic environments to these materials and pose a risk to aquatic biota and the associated ecological processes.
In recent years,non-invasive imaging techniques using bimodal imaging nanoprobes have become indispensible clinical methods for diagnosing various diseases.
