What are the Challenges in Nanoscale Pressure Measurement?
Measuring pressure at the nanoscale presents several challenges:
Size Constraints: The small size of nanoscale structures makes it difficult to apply and measure pressure without affecting the system’s behavior. Environmental Sensitivity: Nanoscale systems are highly sensitive to environmental conditions like temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic fields, which can interfere with pressure measurements. Calibration and Accuracy: Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of pressure sensors at the nanoscale requires precise calibration and sophisticated metrological techniques.
