All surfaces exposed to ambient conditions are covered by a thin film of water. Other than at
high humidity conditions, ie, relative humidity higher than 80%, those water films have …

Abstract Near field scanning Microwave Impedance Microscopy can resolve structures as
small as 1 nm using radiation with wavelengths of 0.1 m. Combining liquid immersion …

In this article, we develop and solve an analytical model to understand the elasto-
hydrodynamic force response of a deformable, soft substrate, under dynamic loading; …

Nanofluidics finds its root in the study of fluids and flows at the nanoscale. Flow rate is a
quantity that is both central when dealing with flows and notoriously difficult to measure …

Water menisci wet all sorts of cavities, produce among the most intense forces at the
nanoscale and play a role in many physical and chemical processes. The physical …

Nanoscale imaging of a liquid/liquid interface by atomic force microscopy (AFM) is achieved
through the self‐assembly of interfacial layers of either polymers, lipids, or nanoparticles …

We derive equations of motion that describe the dynamics of a fluid confined within an
elastic nanotube subject to periodic bending deflections. We use the principle of least action …

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo de abordagem analítica, numérica e experimental sobre
a analise eletromagnética aplicada no projeto de estruturas de onda guiada. Inicialmente …

La mesure quantitative de propriétés mécaniques à l'échelle nanométrique en matière molle
est un réel enjeu pour de nombreux domaines, en particulier en biologie. Cette thèse …

L'étude du couplage hybride entre les vibrations d'un résonateur mécanique et un degré de
liberté quantique requiert une très grande sensibilité en force. Ceci a motivé le …
