Unambiguous interpretation of atomically resolved force microscopy images of an insulator [PDF]
The (111) surface of CaF 2 was imaged with dynamic mode scanning force microscopy and modeled using atomistic simulation. Both experiment and theory showed a clear triangular contrast pattern in images, and theory demonstrated that the contrast pattern ...

Measurement of electrostatic tip–sample interactions by time-domain Kelvin probe force microscopy
Kelvin probe force microscopy is a scanning probe technique used to quantify the local electrostatic potential of a surface. In common implementations, the bias voltage between the tip and the sample is modulated.

Nonlinear analysis of Electrostatic Force Microscopy
In a search to control charge injection and detection with an atomic force microscope, dynamic force curves are investigated in the presence of an electrostatic tip‐sample coupling. An analytical study, using a plane capacitor model, provides results in good agreement with experimental data, in particular for the hysteretic behavior of the tip ...

Calculating electrostatic interactions in atomic force microscopy with semiconductor samples
Electrostatic interactions are important in non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurement. Previous reports had focused on the calculation of electrostatic interactions in AFM with metal and dielectric samples, and the present work extended the ...
