Ultrasonic assisted nanomanipulations with atomic force microscope

Abstract

Demonstrated experimentally in this work was the possibility of controlled handling the nanoparticles with the size from 50 up to 250 nm on a semiconductor surface by using an atomic force microscope under conditions of acoustic excitation. It has been shown that the selective transport of particles of a certain size is possible owing to the change of an ultrasonic vibration amplitude. Also in this study, possible mechanisms in which ultrasound may influence the particle-surface interaction and the probe-particle (surface) interaction have been analyzed
