We describe the approaches for the device fabrication and electrical characterization of molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) layer semiconductor nanostructures with different thicknesses. In addition, the fabrication of ohmic contacts for MoSe2-layer nanocrystals by the focused-ion beam deposition method using platinum (Pt) as a contact metal is described.

When a solid is dipped inside a liquid, the liquid surface becomes curved near the contact. For some solid–liquid interfaces, the liquid is pulled up along the solid, while for others, the liquid surface is convex or depressed near the solid surface. This phenomenon can be explained using the concept of cohesive and adhesive forces. The adhesive force is the molecular force between molecules of different materials, that is, between the molecules of the solid and the liquid. The cohesive force...

In this paper we describe the interfacial synthesis of conjugated microporous polymers (CMP) on sacrificial substrates, and the dissolution of the substrate for the preparation of freestanding CMP nanomembranes. In addition, we will describe how the fragile nanomembranes can be transferred to other substrates.

In this video, we describe the larval contact assay to evaluate the toxicity of the dopamine receptor antagonist amitriptyline on the third instar stage larvae of mosquitoes, known vectors of several human infectious diseases. Assessing the larval mortality upon incubation with different amitriptyline concentrations over different time intervals helps determine its lethal concentration 50.
FAQs
Contact area controls how broadly an interface can transmit applied forces. A larger effective area can distribute loading across more of the boundary, while a reduced or uneven area concentrates interaction at fewer locations. Engineers therefore consider contact area alongside pressure and surface condition when judging whether layers will transfer load effectively or develop localized deformation and damage.
These variables determine how securely adjacent layers interact. Surface roughness affects the character of contact, pressure influences how strongly the layers are pressed together, and friction resists relative sliding. Adhesion can further hold surfaces together. Their combined behavior helps indicate whether an assembly will slide, separate, deform, or respond as a unified structure.
Bonded interfaces can develop chemical or metallurgical connections between layers, giving the interface a connection beyond simple physical contact. Other interfaces depend more directly on contact area, pressure, friction, and adhesion. This distinction matters because the dominant interaction influences force, heat, or electrical-signal transfer and changes how engineers assess separation, sliding, and interfacial failure.
An analysis should examine contact area, surface roughness, pressure, friction, adhesion, and whether the layers form a chemical or metallurgical bond. Engineers also identify which quantity must cross the interface, such as force, heat, or an electrical signal. Considering these features together helps connect interface conditions with expected motion, deformation, unified action, or damage.
The concept supports analysis of laminated materials, coatings, composite structures, seals, and additively manufactured components. In each case, the interface can affect how neighboring layers cooperate and how the assembly withstands service conditions. Applying the mechanism to these systems helps engineers improve load transfer and durability while accounting for interface-specific behavior rather than treating every layer as fully unified.
By relating interface conditions to sliding, separation, deformation, and unified action, engineers can recognize how an assembly may lose performance. The analysis helps identify delamination, wear, and thermal damage as important failure modes. These outcomes are relevant to safer design because they connect observable damage or loss of function with the interfacial behavior that produced it.
