Quantification of Properties for Ferroelectric Thin Films Using Piezo-response Force Microscopy

Cain M.G., Lowe M.J., Cuenat A., Stewart M., Blackburn J., National Physical Laboratory, UK

Ferroelectric thin films are used within FE-RAM Memory devices, thermal imaging cameras and for new and emerging micro-integrated applications. Piezo Force Microscopy (PFM) is a method that can be used to probe (using a modified [...]

Interactions between Carbon Nanotubes and Liquids: Imbibition and Wetting

Cuenat A., Whitby M., Cain M., Mendels D., Quirke N., National Physical Laboratory, UK

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have potential applications in nanofluidic devices and are already in use for composite reinforcement. Their interactions with fluids are critical in both those applications. Furthermore, the wetting dynamics of homogeneous and structured [...]
