A Crowdsourcing-based Air Pollution Measurement System Using DIY Atomic Force Microscopes
Air pollutants have become the major problem of many cities, causing millions of human deaths worldwide every year. Among all the noxious pollutants in air, particles with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less (PM2.5) are the most hazardous because they are small enough to penetrate to the lungs and invade the smallest airways. Since the presence of dangerous levels of PM2.5, commonly reported ...
متن کاملA Comparison of Control Architectures for Atomic Force Microscopes
We evaluate the performance of two control architectures applied to atomic force microscopes (AFM). Feedback-only control is a natural solution and has been applied widely. Expanding on that, combining feedback controllers with plant-injection feedforward filters has been shown to greatly improve tracking performance in AFMs. Alternatively, performance can also be improved by the use of a close...
متن کاملA Compact Vertical Scanner for Atomic Force Microscopes
A compact vertical scanner for an atomic force microscope (AFM) is developed. The vertical scanner is designed to have no interference with the optical microscope for viewing the cantilever. The theoretical stiffness and resonance of the scanner are derived and verified via finite element analysis. An optimal design process that maximizes the resonance frequency is performed. To evaluate the sc...
متن کاملConstant Force Feedback Controller Design Using PID-Like Fuzzy Technique for Tapping Mode Atomic Force Microscopes
A novel constant force feedback mechanism based on fuzzy logic for tapping mode Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM) is proposed in this paper. A mathematical model for characterizing the cantilever-sample interaction subsystem which is nonlinear and contains large uncertainty is first developed. Then, a PID-like fuzzy controller, combing a PD-like fuzzy controller and a PI controller, is designed to...
متن کاملProbing Nanoscale Heat and Force Interactions Using Atomic Force Microscopes (afm)
Many devices and instruments such as magnetic hard disk drives and atomic force microscopes (AFM) rely on the stable operation of their small probing heads at nanoscale gaps. Due to the small scale of the probing heads, the force interactions (Casimir force and electrostatic force) between the small probes and the surrounding become more significant. The local heating caused by read/write elect...
