- More about Self-Assembled Water Chains: A Scanning Probe Microscopy Approach
This book introduces a newly developed scanning probe microscopy (SPM) approach to probe confined water at the molecular and atomic scale, bridging the gap between theory and practice in liquid-based nano- and bio-technologies. It also introduces the cantilever-based optical interfacial force microscope (COIFM), which was invented by the author.

Despite significant advancements in our understanding of the long-range electrostatic double-layer force, which is heavily influenced by ionic strength in water, employing theoretical models like DLVO (Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek), the structure of confined water in air remains largely unknown, leading to a multitude of unexplained phenomena. This book aims to bridge that knowledge gap by introducing a novel scanning probe microscopy (SPM) approach, which enables the molecular and atomic exploration of confined water. Authored by the innovator of SPM, this comprehensive text covers both the newly developed SPM technique and original strategies for addressing broader interfacial water challenges. Additionally, it introduces the cantilever-based optical interfacial force microscope (COIFM), a groundbreaking invention by the author alongside its methodology. By gaining a deeper understanding of these phenomena, this book will have a profound impact on liquid-based nano- and bio-technologies, including lab-on-a-chip technologies, nanofluidic devices, dip-pen nanolithography, nano-oxidation, water-based granular interactions, liquid-based nanolubricants, hydration layers in biopolymers, biomolecule manipulation, protein folding, colloid suspension stability, enzyme activity, clay swelling, bioactive surface development, water columns, and ion channeling in membranes. Furthermore, it will contribute to enhancing the performance of moving components in silicon-based micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) devices, where water plays a crucial role in interfacial interactions.
