Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) polymerization utilizes the delivery of vapor‐phase
monomers to form chemically well‐defined polymeric films directly on the surface of a …

In addition to its well-known capabilities in imaging and spectroscopy, scanning probe
microscopy (SPM) has recently shown great potentials for patterning of material structures in …

Focused ion beam (FIB) technology has become increasingly popular in the fabrication of
nanoscale structures. In this paper, the recent developments of the FIB technology are …

Several in vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that nanostructured materials, which
mimic the nanometer topography of the native tissues, improve biocompatible responses …

Tiny medicine refers to the development of small easy to use devices that can help in the
early diagnosis and treatment of disease. Early diagnosis is the key to successfully treating …

Coronary artery disease (CAD) kills millions of people every year. It results from a narrowing
of the arteries (stenosis) supplying blood to the heart. This review discusses the merits and …

The controlled tuning of the characteristic dimensions of two‐dimensional arrays of block‐
copolymer reverse micelles deposited on silicon surfaces is demonstrated. The polymer …

Nanopositioning systems driven by piezoelectric actuators are widely used in different fields.
However, the hysteresis phenomenon is a major factor in reducing the positioning accuracy …

Recent developments of tip-based nanofabrication (TBN) are reviewed. In TBN, a
functionalized cantilevered-tip is the common basic apparatus for performing the tasks of …

Self-assembly of molecular or nonmolecular components by non-covalent interactions offers
an invaluable tool for the preparation of discrete nanostructures and extended 2D and 3D …
