Towards nanoscale electrical measurements in liquid by advanced KPFM techniques: a review

open access: yesReports on Progress in Physics, 2018
Abstract Fundamental mechanisms of energy storage, corrosion, sensing, and multiple biological functionalities are directly coupled to electrical processes and ionic dynamics at solid–liquid interfaces. In many cases, these processes are spatially inhomogeneous taking place at grain boundaries, step edges, point defects, ion channels,

Contact electrification and charge decay on polyester fibres: A KPFM study

open access: yesJournal of Electrostatics, 2018
Abstract Surface contact electrification experiments have been performed on insulating polyester fibres in contact with a conductive fibre using biased atomic force microscopy tips. With positive tip bias, charge spots have been deposited in a reproducible manner.

Artifacts in KPFM in FM, AM and Heterodyne AM Modes

Key Engineering Materials, 2014
In this paper, the crosstalk in potential measurements caused by the topographic feedback and the resonance frequency in Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) was investigated in frequency modulation (FM), amplitude modulation (AM) and heterodyne amplitude modulation (heterodyne AM) modes.

Capacitive Crosstalk in AM-Mode KPFM

2011
In Kelvin probe force microscopes based on electrostatic tip excitation, a nonnegligible capacitive crosstalk occurs between the electrostatic probe excitation signal and the probe deflection output signal. In atomic force microscopy setups where a self-oscillation force feedback loop is used, the parasitic coupling may also superpose onto the ...

Applications of KPFM-Based Approaches for Surface Potential and Electrochemical Measurements in Liquid

Springer Series in Surface Sciences, 2018
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) has been widely used to map nanoscale surface potentials of materials in ambient and ultra-high vacuum environments. However, to study and ultimately understand charge-related processes, e.g., in biological systems or to further improve energy storage devices such as electrochemical batteries, nanoscale surface ...

Interpretation of KPFM Data with the Weight Function for Charges

2018
The KPFM signal for systems containing local charges can be expressed as a weighted sum over all local charges. The weight function for charges quantifies the contribution of each charge, depending on its position. In this chapter, we evaluate the KPFM weight function for charges by analyzing several application-relevant model systems. The intention of
