Thin film with gold and glycerol
I'm trying to create a ~2-3 nm thick film with glycerol and gold nanoparticles(30 nm in dia.). The gold particles are in suspension in DI water. I've tried a 5% solution (diluted glycerol) and the DI and gold using a dip coating process with withdraw speed (0.75 mm/min). The film thickness...

AFM-IR Webinar: ‘nanoscale IR Spectroscopy – where AFM meets IR’ on Wed, May 23 at 11AM EST
The ability to identify material under an AFM tip has been identified as one of the "Holy Grails" of probe microscopy. IR spectroscopy can characterize and identify materials via vibrational resonances of chemical bonds and is a very widely used analytical technique. We have successfully integrated AFM with IR spectroscopy...
