N2 - In this paper, we describe the deposition of nickel nanoparticles and nanowires in the 'V' shaped grooves of Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG). Freshly cleaved HOPG was exposed to a plating solution of nickel and electro chemically deposited by cyclic voltametry. The morphology of the deposited nanoparticles was studied using an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) in non-contact mode. These nanoparticles were manipulated by magnetic field. The critical force to displace the nanoparticles was estimated using contact mode of AFM.
