Local spectroscopy and atomic imaging of tunneling current, forces and dissipation on graphite [PDF]
, 2005 Theory predicts that the currents in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and the attractive forces measured in atomic force microscopy (AFM) are directly related. Atomic images obtained in an attractive AFM mode should therefore be redundant because they

Optimal geometry for a quartz multipurpose SPM sensor
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2013 We propose a geometry for a piezoelectric SPM sensor that can be used for combined AFM/LFM/STM. The sensor utilises symmetry to provide a lateral mode without the need to excite torsional modes.
