Toward Single-Atomic-Layer Lithography on Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite Surfaces Using AFM-Based Electrochemical Etching

TL;DR: In this article , an atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based electrochemical etching of a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface is studied toward the single-atomic-layer lithography of intricate patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoscale characterization of β-phase HxLi1−xNbO3 layers by piezoresponse force microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a non-destructive approach for the characterization of proton exchanged layers in LiNbO3 with sub-micrometric resolution by means of piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional and Structural Effects of Layer Periodicity in Chemical Solution-Deposited Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 Thin Films

TL;DR: The role of crystallization layers' periodicity and thickness on functional response in chemical solution-deposited lead zirconate titanate thin films, with periodic, alternating Zr and Ti gradients normal to the surface of the film, was investigated in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen reactive ion etch processes for the selective removal of poly-(4-vinylpyridine) in block copolymer films.

TL;DR: The work presented herein shows the development of a selective plasma etch process for the removal of P4VP cores from PS-b-P4VP nanopatterned film and suggests that the position of the nitrogen in the aromatic ring of P 4VP plays a key role in this selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replica Exchange Molecular Dynamics of Diphenylalanine Amyloid Peptides in Electric Fields.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the temperature-dependent conformational dynamics of diphenylalanine (FF) amyloid peptides solvated in explicit water molecules by using an enhanced sampling method, replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD), in conjunction with applied electric fields.
