Nanowire Sensors Could Expand Use of AFM
BASEL and LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Oct. 28, 2016 — An atomic force microscope (AFM) that uses nanowires as sensors has demonstrated the ability to measure force size as well as force direction. Due to slight asymmetries in geometry, a nanowire's flexural modes are split into doublets vibrating along orthogonal axes at nearly the same frequency. When the nanowires are integrated into an AFM, the changes in the vibrations caused by different forces can be measured. Essentially, the nanowires can be used as tiny mechanical
