Pore size effects of adhesion and friction for nanohoneycomb structures in AFM

This study analyzes the behavior of adhesion and friction according to the pore size of nanohoneycomb structures in atomic force microscope (AFM). Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) films are fabricated as nanohoneycomb structures. According to the pore diameters of the nanohoneycomb structures, the adhesive forces and the frictional coefficients arc obtained in AFM, and the behaviors are analyzed in the view of the contact area between the sphere particle and nanohoneycomb substrate. The effective Young's moduli of the nanohoneycomb structures are measured from the nanoindentation tests, and the contact areas at zero applied load are calculated by combining the porosity of the nanohoneycomb structures and the contact radius determined from JKR and DMT theory.
