This Application Note describes a method by which Xidex’s NanoBot® nanomanipulator can be used to calibrate the spring constant of an atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilever by deflecting the AFM tip with a calibrated force sensor module mounted as an end effector. The method as described here uses a NanoBot system installed in a scanning electron microscope (SEM). However the method can also be applied in air using a high resolution optical microscope. Spring constants determined by the method apply directly to situations where static deflection is of primary importance. These involve contact mode and colloidal probe AFM measurements, and other measurements involving interfacial forces or bonding forces between atoms or molecules.
Xidex manufactures and sells the NanoBot® system, an easy-to-use, highly versatile, user programmable nanomanipulator featuring specialized end-effectors for nanodevice fabrication and testing inside scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) and focused ion beam (FIB) tools.
Our mission is to enhance the R&D productivity of nanoscientists and nanotechnologists in both industry and academia. We offer best-in-class turnkey solutions to customers with well-defined requirements that are stable over time, and highly adaptable solutions to customers who need a system that can easily be augmented with additional plug-and-play nanopositioners and end-effectors as their needs evolve.
The document summarizes the fundamentals of atomic force microscopy (AFM). It describes that AFM has very high resolution on the order of fractions of nanometers. It operates by measuring the force between a probe tip and the sample surface. The document outlines the basic theory of AFM, including that it consists of a cantilever with a sharp tip used to scan the sample surface. Forces between the tip and sample lead to deflection of the cantilever. It also describes the different operating modes of AFM including contact, non-contact, and tapping modes.

Estimation of Environmental Damages from Mining Pollution: The Marinduque Isl...No to mining in Palawan
Mining pollution has historically been a major source of degradation of natural resource systems such as river, coastal, and air (USEPA 1995). For this reason, mining, as an economic activity, is subject to major environmental regulations worldwide, including the Philippines. The Philippine mining sector, under Republic Act 7942 and DENR Administrative Order No. 96-40, is required to set up a Contingent Liability and Rehabilitation Fund (CLRF) for the purpose of providing compensation for damages and rehabilitation for any adverse effect a mining activity may cause to the environment.
Unfortunately, the current information on mining externalities is insufficient to be useful for policy set-ting. This study was undertaken partly to partly fill this information gap, particularly in the development of policy instruments which require information on social costs of mining, and partly to assist in the formulation of guidelines on damage assessment and compensation for the mining sector. This case study of the Estimation of Environmental Damages from Mining Pollution: The Marinduque Island Mining Accident was implemented.

El cuento transmite la moraleja de que si uno miente constantemente, nadie le creerá aunque diga la verdad cuando más lo necesite.

- Atomic force microscopy (AFM) uses a cantilever with a sharp tip to scan over a sample surface and produce images of its topography. The tip is moved in the x, y, and z directions using a piezoelectric scanner. Interactions between the tip and sample are measured to create images with sub-nanometer resolution.
- AFM can operate in different modes depending on whether the tip is in contact with the surface or oscillating above it. Force-distance curves can also be collected to measure interaction forces. AFM has various applications in biology, materials science, and nanotechnology.

5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
