Electrostatic effects in magnetic field force microscopy
A measurement signal in magnetic field force microscopy includes signals from magnetic forces as well as signals from other short- and long-range forces. Measuring nanoparticles, the electrostatic forces are often of the same order of magnitude as the ma
Nanocarriers in flexible matrix for transdermal applications (TRAPP)
Nanoparticles are already an integral part of biomedical diagnostics. Particularly for drug delivery, the use of nanoparticles is becoming increasingly important not only in cancer therapy but also in the treatment of other diseases due to their unique capabilities and relativel
