Nanofluidics has emerged recently in the footsteps of microfluidics, following the quest for
scale reduction inherent to nanotechnologies. By definition, nanofluidics explores transport …

The boundary condition at the solid–liquid interface on the micro/nanoscale is an important
issue in micro/nanofluidic systems, where drag forces between fluids and solid walls need to …

Atomic force microscopy is an amazing technique that allies a versatile methodology (that
allows measurement of samples in liquid, vacuum or air) to imaging with unprecedented …

We discuss how the wettability and roughness of a solid impacts its hydrodynamic
properties. We see in particular that hydrophobic slippage can be dramatically affected by …

Previous AFM experiments on surface nanobubbles have suggested an anomalously large
contact angle θ of the bubbles (typically∼ 160° measured through the water) and a possible …

Magnetic, acoustic, and thermal (Brownian motion induced) excitations are commonly used
for dynamic atomic force microscopy (AFM) in liquids, yet the fundamental differences in …

This review critically summarizes the recent advances of the microcantilever-based force
sensors for atomic force microscope (AFM) applications. They are one the most common …

Slip length has been measured using the dynamic atomic force microscopy (AFM) method.
Unlike the contact AFM method, the sample surface approaches an oscillating sphere with a …

In this work, parametric noise squeezing and parametric resonance are realized through the
use of an electronic feedback circuit to excite a microcantilever with a signal proportional to …
