Using tapping mode atomic force microscopy, changes to interfacial nanobubble morphology and associated characteristics are analyzed as a function of surface hydrophobicity and solvent–air saturation state.

Mollusc Shells

AbstractCalcite and aragonite shell layers of the main classes of Molluscs are composed of monocrystalline units (prisms, tablets, laths or fibres). Scanning electron and atomic force microscopy studies show these units are composed of small round granules with a thin cortex (amorphous calcium carbonate and/or organic matrix). These granules are organo-mineral composites. A comparison of the size and shape of the granules in different taxa (Mollusca, Brachiopoda) suggests a possible relationship with taxonomy and/or phylogeny.

Understanding the structure near the three-phase contact line is critical for a comprehensive understanding of the thin-film region when a liquid partially wets a planer substrate. Despite numerous theoretical and simulation efforts found literature, an accurate experiment is difficult to conduct because of how small its scale. In the present work the accurate geometry of the region near the three-phase contact line was obtained by directly scanning the thin-film region with atomic force microscopy (AFM). The contact angles were directly extracted from the results and compared with the ones measured from traditional optical methods.
