Combined Kelvin probe force microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry for hydrogen detection in corroded 2024 aluminium alloy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The capability of Kelvin probe force microscopy (KFM) to detect and locate hydrogen in corroded 2024 aluminium alloy was demonstrated. Hydrogen was introduced inside the 2024 alloy following a cyclic corrosion test consisting of cycles of immersion in 1 ...

The effect of sample resistivity on Kelvin probe force microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) is a powerful technique to probe the local electronic structure of materials with atomic force microscopy. One assumption often made is that the applied bias drops fully in the tip-sample junction.
