✦ Synopsis


Dynamic force microscopy has proved to be a powerful imaging tool. Here, the tip of an atomic force microscope is vibrated at a high frequency, typically the resonance frequency of the lever sensor, and at a large vibration amplitude, typically of the order of 10 nm. Imaging contrast is obtained from measuring shifts of the resonance frequency, which provides information on conservative interactions, and of the Q-factor, which is sensitive to dissipative interactions. Problems associated with interaction sensing are discussed from a theoretical and an experimental point of view.

Low-amplitude dynamic force microscopy can operate in a non-contact mode, sensing changes in liquid properties near a surface. Operation of the microscope in water at the higher amplitudes often required for stable imaging has been investigated. When driven by direct application of a force to the ti
