Active multi-point microrheology of cytoskeletal networks
Tobias Paust, Katinka Mertens, Ines Martin +2
Active microrheology is a valuable tool to determine viscoelastic properties of polymer networks. Observing the beads response to the excitation of a reference leads to dynamic and…
High speed nanotribology with quartz crystal resonators via Atomic Force Microscopy
Fengzhen Zhang, Othmar Marti, Stefan Walheim +1
Friction measurements in the range of several meters per second are still of great interests. With the atomic force microscopy (AFM), the oscilaltion situation of the quartz crysta…
Interaction of Epithelial Cells with Surfaces and Surfaces Decorated by Molecules
Daniele Martini, Othmar Marti, Michael Beil +8
A detailed understanding of the interface between living cells and substrate materials is of rising importance in many fields of medicine, biology and biotechnology. Cells at inter…
Conductance of Atomic-Sized Lead Contacts in an Electrochemical Environment
F. -Q. Xie, F. Hüser, F. Pauly +3
Atomic-sized lead (Pb) contacts are deposited and dissolved in an electrochemical environment, and their transport properties are measured. Due to the electrochemical fabrication p…
Independently switchable atomic quantum transistors by reversible contact reconstruction
F. -Q. Xie, R. Maul, A. Augenstein +5
The controlled fabrication of actively switchable atomic-scale devices, in particular transistors, has remained elusive to date. Here we explain operation of an atomic-scale three-…
Pre-selectable integer quantum conductance of electrochemically fabricated silver point contacts
F. -Q. Xie, R. Maul, S. Brendelberger +5
The controlled fabrication of well-ordered atomic-scale metallic contacts is of great interest: it is expected that the experimentally observed high percentage of point contacts wi…
