One of the major limitations for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)-based nanomanipulation is that AFM only has one sharp tip as the end-effector, and can only apply a point force to the nanoobject, which makes it extremely difficult to achieve a stable manipulation. For example, the AFM tip tends to slip-away during nanoparticle manipulation due to its small touch area, and there is no available strategy...
One of the prerequisites for AFM based nanomanipulation is that the position of the target nanoparticle can be stable controlled within a known area, while this prerequisite is still hindered by the uncertainties including the initial position of the nanoparticle and of the AFM tip, together with the uncertain forces from the substrate and so on. In this paper, a Stochastic Pushing (SP) model and...
In developing nano-devices and nano-structures, traditional methodologies on MEMS meet the difficulty from the scale restriction. With the strategy of objects assembly, using AFM to handle nano-rods and other nano-objects is considered as an important and high potential technology in constructing nano-structures. However most of AFM only has one tip as the end effector and cannot control both translational...
One of the major limitations for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) based nanoparticle pushing is that AFM only has one sharp tip as the end-effector. The interaction force between the nanoparticle and the tip is applied through a single point, which often leads the AFM tip to slip-away from the nanoparticle due to their small touch area. Then several minutes is needed to relocate the missed nanoparticle...
