Journal ArticleDOI
Nano bubbles on a hydrophobic surface in water observed by tapping-mode atomic force microscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, a silicon wafer hydrophobized with OTS was immersed into water to observe the surface in-situ by tapping-mode AFM and a large number of nano-size domain images were found on the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attraction between hydrophobic surfaces with and without gas phase
TL;DR: In this paper, the long-range attraction between hydrophobic surfaces in water was investigated using an atomic force microscope (AFM) and their characteristics were compared with the surfaces without exposing to air.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of deformation and breakup of large aggregates in flows of viscous fluids
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional modified discrete element method (mDEM) is proposed to simulate the deformation and breakup process of large aggregates in flows, where the effective particle surface for the hydrodynamic drag force and the disturbance of neighboring particles on the flow field are taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetration of living cell membranes with fortified carbon nanotube tips.
TL;DR: The capability of these modified MCNT tips to carry nanoparticulate payloads and to penetrate the plasma membrane of living pleural mesothelial cells at the smallest indentation depths and lowest penetration forces currently reported for these procedures is illustrated.
