Interfacial Forces
We are interested in interfacial forces at the solid–liquid interface as they govern many processes in various fields reaching from biomedical applications to petroleum engineering.
Interfacial forces at the solid–solid interface are important in composite and nanocomposite materials, where the strength of these interactions is crucial for the mechanical performance of the materials systems.
We directly probe interfacial interactions at the nanoscale using scanning probe techniques.
