Kelvin probe force microscopy in liquid using electrochemical force microscopy
Conventional closed loop-Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) has emerged as a powerful technique for probing electric and transport phenomena at the solid-gas interface. The extension of KPFM capabilities to probe electrostatic and electrochemical phenomena at the solid-liquid interface is of interest for a broad range of applications from energy storage to biological systems. However, the ope...
متن کاملPractical aspects of Kelvin probe force microscopy
We discuss practical aspects of Kelvin probe force microscopy ~KFM! which are important to obtain stable images of the electric surface potential distribution at high spatial resolution ~,100 nm! and high potential sensitivity ~,1 mV! on conducting and nonconducting samples. We compare metal-coated and semiconducting tips with respect to their suitability for KFM. Components of the metal coatin...
متن کاملKelvin probe force microscopy of nanocrystalline TiO2 photoelectrodes
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) provide a promising third-generation photovoltaic concept based on the spectral sensitization of a wide-bandgap metal oxide. Although the nanocrystalline TiO2 photoelectrode of a DSC consists of sintered nanoparticles, there are few studies on the nanoscale properties. We focus on the microscopic work function and surface photovoltage (SPV) determination of TiO...
متن کاملResolution and contrast in Kelvin probe force microscopy
The combination of atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe technology is a powerful tool to obtain high-resolution maps of the surface potential distribution on conducting and nonconducting samples. However, resolution and contrast transfer of this method have not been fully understood, so far. To obtain a better quantitative understanding, we introduce a model which correlates the measured po...
