Effects of capillarity on the mechanical stability of small-scale interfaces

Interfacial adhesion and friction are significant factors in determining the reliability of small-scale mechanical devices such as with MEMS and the computer head/disk interface (HDI). As the interface spacing becomes smaller, operational failure via stiction has become a growing concern in these sy...
