PicoForce Lab

Riedo Group ­­— Understanding and manipulating solids and liquids at the nanoscale is a matter of continuously growing scientific and technological interest. Complex nanoscale interfaces and materials with reduced dimensionality not only present beautiful and sometimes unexpected new science but they are also relevant for applications in micro/nano-electro-mechanical systems, photonics, micro/nano-fluidics, biology, and nanoelectronics. Our mission is to develop novel scanning probe microscopy-based methods for fabricating the next generation of electronic and biomedical devices, as well as for ground breaking studies of the mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of novel nanomaterials, including 2D materials and bio-interfaces. Our lab is highly diverse and interdisciplinary with people and collaborations in chemical engineering, physics, chemistry, mechanical engineering and biomedical engineering.
