6. Reconstructing force from harmonic motion
Sammanfattning : High-quality factor oscillators are often used in measurements of verysmall force since they exhibit an enhanced sensitivity in the narrow frequencyband around resonance. Forces containing frequencies outside this frequencyband are often not detectable and the total force acting on the oscillatorremains unknown. LÄS MER
7. Superconducting kinetic inductance devices for nanoscale force sensing
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we present a force sensor for atomic force microscopy based on cavity optomechanical principles. We explain the function, design, fabrication and characterisation of the force sensor. The mechanical part of the force sensor consists of a cantilever with a very fine tip. LÄS MER
8. Nanometer Scale Protein Templates for Bionanotechnology Applications
Sammanfattning : Nanofabrication techniques were used to manufacture nanometer scale protein templates. The fabrication approach employs electron beam lithography (EBL) patterning on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) thiol (CH3O(CH2CH2O)17NHCO(CH2)2SH) self-assembled monolayers (SAM) on Au. LÄS MER
9. Digital measurement and control of microwave quantum circuits
Sammanfattning : Superconducting circuits are well established tools for quantum sensing anda promising new platform for quantum computing. Typically these quantumcircuits operate at microwave frequencies where the thermal noise at 10mK in a dilution refrigerator is small compared to the ground-state energy. LÄS MER
10. Investigating nano-scale viscous and elastic forces withintermodulation : Studies in multifrequency atomic force microscopy
Sammanfattning : Investigating visco-elastic forces at the nanometer-scale is important to thecharacterization of soft materials. A quantitative force measurement can be ob-tained using an atomic force microscope (AFM) with a calibrated force transducer(the AFM cantilever). LÄS MER
