Friction, adhesion, the self assembly of molecules essential to life and the flow properties of slurries is explained via an understanding of surface forces. These very short-range forces are often studied using ideal surfaces of very low roughness. As only a few surfaces are available with these ideal characteristics this has greatly limited the choice of materials that could previously be employed in surface force investigations. This project will use atomic layer deposition to produce thin films of novel materials that are extremely smooth and highly suitable for such investigations. Thereby, the understanding of surface forces, adhesion and adsorption phenomenon will be expanded to a wide range of new materials.

摩擦，粘附力，分子的自我组装必不可少的生活和浆料的流动性能是通过表面力的理解解释。这些非常短距离的力通常使用非常低粗糙度的理想表面来研究。由于只有少数表面具有这些理想特性，这极大地限制了以前可用于表面力研究的材料的选择。该项目将使用原子层沉积来生产非常光滑且非常适合此类研究的新型材料薄膜。因此，对表面力、粘附和吸附现象的理解将扩展到广泛的新材料。
