Journal ArticleDOI
Surface tension effect on the mechanical properties of nanomaterials measured by atomic force microscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of reduced size on the elastic properties measured on silver and lead nanowires and on polypyrrole nanotubes with an outer diameter ranging between 30 and 250 nm is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regular arrays of highly ordered ferroelectric polymer nanostructures for non-volatile low-voltage memories
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that high-density arrays of nanostructures of a ferroelectric polymer can be easily fabricated by a simple nano-embossing protocol, with integration densities larger than 33 Gbits inch(-2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoscale mapping of the elasticity of microbial cells by atomic force microscopy
TL;DR: This is the first report in which spatially resolved AFM force curves are used to distinguish regions of different elasticity at the surface of single microbial cells in relation with function (i.e., cell division), and this approach will provide fundamental insights into the spatial distribution of physical properties at heterogeneous microbial cell surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic modulus of polypyrrole nanotubes
TL;DR: It is shown that the elastic modulus strongly increases when the thickness or outer diameter of polypyrrole nanotubes decreases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermo-responsive polymer brushes with tunable collapse temperatures in the physiological range
TL;DR: In this article, an air bubble is trapped below the tested surface which is immersed face down in water, and the strongly hydrophilic brush can attain equilibrium, which is rarely the case for usual contact angle measurements.
