Calibration of the stiffness of atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers is critical for industry
and academic research. The multi-position calibration method for AFM cantilevers based on …

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is well known for its immune suppressive role,
especially in solid tumors which are characterized by a thick, dense stroma. Apart from cell …

Bottom-up grown single-crystalline silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are highly intriguing to build
nanoscale probes, for instance for atomic force microscopy (AFM), due to their mechanical …

We report the measurement of the spring constant of a cantilever using an electrostatic
sensing and actuating force measurement system. The force measurement system consists …
