Manipulation of nanoparticles of different shapes inside a scanning electron microscope

Manipulation of nanoparticles of different shapes inside a scanning electron microscope

In this work polyhedron-like gold and sphere-like silver nanoparticles (NPs) were manipulated on an oxidized Si substrate to study the dependence of the static friction and the contact area on the particle geometry. Measurements were performed inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM) that was equ...
