Force measurements with the atomic force microscope: Technique, interpretation and applications

“…Examples for a common MEMS device are digital mirror devices used in digital projection displays (DMDs). Liu and Bhushan [659][660][661][662] used an AFM to test the frictional and mechanical properties of the hinge of the DMD and the force necessary to tilt the mirrors. The adhesive force on the landing sites were measured for different materials.…”

Ultrathin Wear‐Resistant Ionic Liquid Films for Novel MEMS/NEMS Applications

“…[1,2] For example, adhesion is the major cause of the failure of accelerometers used in automobile air bag triggering mechanisms [3] and in micromirror components of commercial digital light processing (DLP) equipment. [2,[4][5][6][7] Wear has been found to compromise the performance of NEMS-based atomic force microscopy (AFM) data storage systems. [8][9] In order to improve tribological performance, lubricants are applied to the MEMS/NEMS device surfaces.…”

Crystalline Organic Molecular Thin Film with Electrical Switching Property: Scanning Probe Microscopy and Optical Spectroscopy Study

“…20 It should be pointed out that the high-voltage electron beam in the TEM system could cause the film to convert from crystalline to amorphous in less than 20 s as that observed in other crystalline organic films. 21 STM observations are performed on the samples deposited on HOPG substrate in order to get further insight into the film growth mechanism and crystal structure. Figure 5 shows the typical images.…”
