TY - JOUR A1 - Fahrbach, M. A1 - Friedrich, Sebastian A1 - Cappella, Brunero A1 - Peiner, Erwin T1 - Calibrating a high-speed contact-resonance profilometer N2 - A European EMPIR project, which aims to use large-scale piezoresistive microprobes for contact resonance applications, a well-established measurement mode of atomic force microscopes (AFMs), is being funded. As the probes used in this project are much larger in size than typical AFM probes some of the simplifications and assumptions made for AFM probes are not applicable. This study presents a guide on how to systematically create a model that replicates the dynamic behavior of microprobes, including air damping, nonlinear sensitivities, and frequency dependencies. The model is then verified by analyzing a series of measurements.

Wear volumes can be measured with different techniques or else be calculated starting from some quantities measured from the wear scar. Advantages and drawbacks of the measuring techniques are shown by means of wear scars and calottes resulting from ball-on-plane tests with 100Cr6 specimens. When measuring wear volumes, white light interferometry results to be one of the most suitable techniques. When wear volumes are calculated, errors result mainly from two sources: (1) the arbitrary choice of one or few line profiles for the determination of the width and of the planimetric wear, and (2) approximations in the calculation, which are even necessary when values of the wear volumes of the single tribological partners and not only the total volume are of interest. The effect of both error sources on the accuracy in the determination of wear volumes is characterized and elucidated by examples. It is found that errors due to approximations are negligible when compared to errors due to the arbitrary choice of one line profile.

T1 - Supramolecular copolymerization driven by integrative self-sorting of hydrogen-bonded rosettes N2 - Molecular recognition to preorganize noncovalently polymerizable supramolecular complexes is a characteristic process of natural supramolecular polymers, and such recognition processes allow for dynamic self-alteration, yielding complex polymer systems with extraordinarily high efficiency in their targeted function. We herein show an example of such molecular recognition-controlled kinetic assembly/disassembly processes within artificial supramolecular polymer systems using six-membered hydrogen-bonded supramolecular complexes (rosettes). Electron-rich and poor monomers are prepared that kinetically coassemble through a temperature-controlled protocol into amorphous coaggregates comprising a diverse mixture of rosettes. Over days, the electrostatic interaction between two monomers induces an integrative self-sorting of rosettes. While the electron-rich monomer inherently forms toroidal homopolymers, the additional electrostatic interaction that can also guide rosette association allows helicoidal growth of supramolecular copolymers that are comprised of an alternating array of two monomers. Upon heating, the helicoidal copolymers undergo a catastrophic transition into amorphous coaggregates via entropy-driven randomization of the monomers in the rosette.

The background is twofold: i) anisotropic milling has to be taken into account during the preparation of TEM specimens and in the manufacturing of micro parts from crystalline materials, and ii) the orientation depending milling behaviour can be used to generate topographies with specific properties with respect to, for example, adsorption, wear, and corrosion.

T1 - Effect of crystal orientation on imaging contrast and sputter results during focused ion beam milling of Cu studied by FIB, EBSD, SEM, and AFM N2 - During focused ion beam microscopy (FIB) of crystalline materials imaging contrast and milling result are effected by orientation of the crystals with respect to the incident ion beam. This is due to the possibility of ion channeling along preferred crystal directions which effects the depth at which interaction between ions and specimen atoms takes place. As a result of channeling emission of ion induced secondary electrons (iiSE) and secondary ions (SI) as well as the sputter rate decreases. Theoretical channeling orientations and critical angles can be calculated. These effects have been studied quantitatively for polycrystalline recrystallized Cu as a typical model case.

This is possible since the detection method is based on a very sharp AFM tip which starts to oscillate when the sample starts to thermally expand (the changed is caused by the absorption of IR wavelength) where the thermal expansion is related to the IR absorption. This presentation briefly described the application of that new technique from polymer characterization and utilization of AFM-IR in material research, up to life science applications.

Force volume measurements allow a quantitative analysis of the elastic moduli with nanometer resolution, showing a contrast in mechanical response between bundles and troughs. Additionally, analysis of the lateral cantilever deflection shows a clear correlation between friction and the sample topography. Those results support the theory of crack propagation and the formation of voids as a mechanism responsible for the formation of ripples. This paper also shows the limits of the presented measuring methods for soft, compliant, and small structures.

T1 - Editorial: Tribology and Atomic Force Microscopy - Towards Single Asperity Contact N2 - The concept behind this Research Topic (RT) was to collect works, in which Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) techniques are employed to study tribological phenomena and to push the resolution of measurements towards single asperity contact. Thanks to the direct determination of sample height with sub-nanometer resolution and the possibility of measuring local friction, AFM can be employed after a tribotest to detect topography and friction changes at the nanometer scale. Recently, efforts are being expended to use AFM cantilevers as tribometers, i.e., as probes altering the volume of suitable samples, thereby measuring tip and/or sample wear and friction at the nano/microscale. Thus, single asperity contact, friction, and wear can be investigated. Since friction and wear at the macroscale are the result of asperities interactions, such experiments are of great importance for better understanding of tribological processes.

T1 - Flexibility and Dynamicity Enhances and Controls Supramolecular Self-Assembly of Zinc(II) Metallogels N2 - Supramolecular self-assembly of stacked architectures is typically achieved through hydrogen bonding or π–π interactions between monomers constructed from stable and inert bonds. In contrast, coordinative interactions of early metals promise distinct self-assembly behaviour due to more flexible bonding geometries and a wider range of stabilities and exchange kinetics. In this report we demonstrate that tailoring the flexible coordination sphere of Zinc(II) complexes via subtle ligand modification promotes not only one but also three-dimensional self-assembly both thermodynamically and kinetically into higher-order fibrous morphologies, the latter being elucidated by electron tomography. As a result, coordination chemistry can be translated into both nanoscopic (fibre stiffness) and macroscopic (thermal gel stability) material properties. Utilizing dynamicity enables gelation via subcomponent self-assembly, constructing the supramolecular polymer network simultaneously with the monomer. Furthermore, coordinative dis- and reassembly via metal-ligand exchange reactions involving the first and second coordination spheres allows for control over gelation and emission of the system. Our report links concepts in supramolecular self-assembly and coordination chemistry by leveraging the unique bonding interactions that cannot be achieved for traditional monomers, promising applications in stimuli-responsive optoelectronics.
