During the last decade there has been increasing use of artificial intelligence tools in
nanotechnology research. In this paper we review some of these efforts in the context of …

In this work we briefly describe the most relevant features of WSXM, a freeware scanning
probe microscopy software based on MS-Windows. The article is structured in three different …

A simple optical method is presented for identifying and measuring the effective optical
properties of nanometer-thick, graphene-based materials, based on the use of substrates …

Seemingly contradicting results raised a debate over the ability of DNA to transport charge
and the nature of the conduction mechanisms through it. We developed an experimental …

A fundamental requirement for a molecule to be considered a molecular wire (MW) is the
ability to transport electrical charge with a reasonably low resistance. We have carried out …

The most outstanding feature of scanning force microscopy (SFM) is its capability to detect
various different short and long range interactions. In particular, magnetic force microscopy …

A method to calculate electrostatic forces in the context of atomic force microscopy that is
useful for the calculation of the electrostatic forces when different length scales are included …

In the present work the electrostatic interaction of a real scanning force microscopy (SFM)
probe with a sample is studied theoretically as well as experimentally. To model the probe, a …

We recently reported electrical transport measurements through double-stranded (ds) DNA
molecules that are embedded in a self-assembled monolayer of single-stranded (ss) DNA …

G4-DNA, a quadruple helical motif of stacked guanine tetrads, is stiffer and more resistant to
surface forces than double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), yet it enables self-assembly. Therefore …
