conclusion<br />
Method for analyzing adhesion force <strong>between</strong><br />
<strong>nanoparticles</strong><br />
Particles migrate from layer to the AFM tip<br />
Experimental data and Modelling fits well<br />

outlook<br />
Statistical analysis of TiO 2 10% Fe force measurements<br />
Validation of resultes with a rutile single crystal in<br />
mikrometer size<br />
Perform fishing experiments on TiO 2 monolayers with<br />
different particle sizes<br />
