Many emerging devices and technologies rely on contacts between nanoscale bodies. Recent analytical theories, experiments, and simulations of nanocontacts have made conflicting predictions about the mechanical response as these contacts are loaded and separated. The present investigation combined in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to study the contact...
Fundamental understanding of the mechanics of contact for metallic nanocontacts is crucial for scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques that enable precise measurements of electrical properties of surfaces. The conventional approach for quantitative analysis of electrical SPM measurements relies on combining continuum mechanics models of contact with classical or ballistic electronic transport theories...
