Piezoresponse Force Microscopy for Bioelectromechanics
Electromechanical coupling, including piezoelectricity, ferroelectricity, and flexoelectricity, is present in a wide range of organic materials. Such phenomena have been postulated to have a functional role in biological systems, where e.g. conformational changes in proteins can be electrically activated.

Tuning-fork-based piezoresponse force microscopy
Abstract Surface displacements of a few picometers, occurring after application of an electric potential to piezoelectric materials, can be detected and mapped with nanometer-scale lateral resolution by scanning probe methods, the most notable being piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM).

Piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM)
Piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) detects the local piezoelectric deformation of a sample caused by an applied electric field from the tip of a scanning force microscope. PFM is able to measure deformations in the sub-picometre regime and can map ferroelectric domain patterns with a lateral resolution of a few nanometres.

Piezoresponse Force Microscopy Characterization of PTO Thin Films
AbstractThe piezoelectric properties of PTO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition are investigated with piezoresponse force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The as-grown films exhibit upward polarization, and inhomogeneous distribution of piezoelectric characteristics.
