Content includes research and reviews on SPM science and technology for all fields of science and engineering and cover such topics as magnetic force, electrostatic force, phase detection, biological materials, force modulation metals, semiconductors, composites, ceramics, and lithography. Also, electrostatic force generation is common in micro-electromechanica] systems (MEMS), and the ability to calibrate such forces from electrical and length measurements could prove beneficial. Rayleigh theorized that a droplet of liquid becomes unstable and emits these jets when electrostatic forces between charges on its surface become too great for the droplet's surface tension to oppose. |
