Currently, pantograph–catenary dynamic simulations are mainly based on deterministic
approaches. However, the contact force between catenary and pantograph depends on …

The ability to probe structures and functional properties of complex systems at the
nanoscale, both at their surface and in their volume, has drawn substantial attention in …

The spatial resolution and the contrast in mechanical property mapping by atomic force
microscopy (AFM) modes based on dynamic force-curve acquisition, HarmoniX™(HMX) and …

Germanium sulfide (GeS) is a layered monochalcogenide semiconductor with a band gap of
about 1.6 eV. To verify the suitability of GeS for field-effect-based device applications, a …

Ultrasound atomic force microscopy (AFM) has received considerable interest due to its
subsurface imaging capabilities, particularly for nanostructure imaging. The local contact …

Ultrasound atomic force microscopy (US-AFM) has been used for subsurface imaging of
nanostructures. The contact stiffness variations have been suggested as the origin of the …

The characterization of buried nanoscale structures nondestructively is an important
challenge in a number of applications, such as defect detection and metrology in the …
