Comprehensive characterization of nanomaterials for medical applications is a challenging and complex task due to the multitude of parameters which need to be taken into consideration in a broad range of conditions. Routine methods such as…
Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) coupled to magnons have attracted much attention because they allow for the long-range transport of magnetic information which cannot be achieved by magnon alone. We employed pulsed laser interferometry to…
Since the invention of the atomic force microscope (AFM) in 1986, there has been a drive to apply this scanning probe technique or a form of this technique to various disciplines in nanoscale science. Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is a…
The low-momentum interaction $V_{\text{low-k}}$ derived from realistic models of the nucleon-nucleon interaction is presented in a separable form. This separable force is supported by a contact interaction in order to achieve the saturation…
Interferometry is a prime technique for modern precision measurements. Atoms, unlike light, have significant interactions with electric, magnetic, and gravitational fields, making their use in interferometric applications particularly…
The interaction between quantum two-level systems is typically short-range in free space and most photonic environments. Here we show that diminishing momentum isosurfaces with equal frequencies can create a significantly extended range of…
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) methods utilizing resonant mechanical vibrations of cantilevers in contact with a sample surface have shown sensitivities as high as few picometers for detecting surface displacements. Such a high sensitivity…
The large interest in chiral magnetic structures for realization of nanoscale magnetic storage or logic devices has necessitated methods which can quantify magnetic interactions at the atomic scale. To overcome the limitations of the…
We consider interactions between surface and interfacial waves in the two layer system. Our approach is based on the Hamiltonian structure of the equations of motion, and includes the general procedure for diagonalization of the quadratic…
Fast camera imaging is used to study ion acoustic waves propagating azimuthally in a magnetized plasma column. The high speed image sequences are analyzed using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition and 2D Fourier Transform, allowing to evaluate…
Working at the Lifshitz level, we investigate the van der Waals interactions across a series of layers with a periodic motif. We derive the complete form of the van der Waals interaction as an explicit function of the number of periodic…
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a widely employed tool for micro-/nanoscale topographic imaging. However, conventional AFM scanning struggles to reconstruct complex 3D micro-/nanostructures precisely due to limitations such as incomplete…
The normal field instability in magnetic liquids is investigated experimentally by means of a radioscopic technique which allows a precise measurement of the surface topography. The dependence of the topography on the magnetic field is…
An analytical model of the electrostatic force between the tip of a non-contact Atomic Force Microscope (nc-AFM) and the (001) surface of an ionic crystal is reported. The model is able to account for the atomic contrast of the local…
We describe a technique for mapping the spatial variation of static electric, static magnetic, and rf magnetic fields using a pulsed atomic or molecular beam. The method is demonstrated using a beam designed to measure the electric dipole…
We present a study of light-induced forces between two coupled plasmonic nano-particles above various slab geometries including a metallic half-space and a 280-nm thick negative index material (NIM) slab waveguide. We investigate optical…
Using a boundary element method to calculate the electromagnetic fields and the Maxwell stress tensor method to compute the electromagnetic forces, we investigate electromagnetic wave induced forces acting on a pair of identical metal…
Electromagnetic sources, as e.g. lasers, antennas, diffusers or thermal sources, produce a wavefield that interacts with objects to transfer them its momentum. We show that the photonic force exerted on a small particle in the near field of…

The interaction between a rapidly oscillating atomic force microscope tip and a soft material surface is described using both elastic and viscous forces with a moving surface model. We derive the simplest form of this model, motivating it…
