Intermolecular contrast in atomic force microscopy images without intermolecular bonds.
Intermolecular features in atomic force microscopy images of organic molecules have been ascribed to intermolecular bonds. A recent theoretical study [P. Hapala et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 085421 (2014)] showed that these features can also be explained by the flexibility of molecule-terminated tips. We probe this effect by carrying out atomic force microscopy experiments on a model system that con...
متن کاملReal-space identification of intermolecular bonding with atomic force microscopy.
We report a real-space visualization of the formation of hydrogen bonding in 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-hq) molecular assemblies on a Cu(111) substrate, using noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM). The atomically resolved molecular structures enable a precise determination of the characteristics of hydrogen bonding networks, including the bonding sites, orientations, and lengths. The observati...
متن کاملAtomic force microscopy to study intermolecular forces and bonds associated with bacteria.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) operates on a very different principle than other forms of microscopy, such as optical microscopy or electron microscopy. The key component of an AFM is a cantilever that bends in response to forces that it experiences as it touches another surface. Forces as small as a few picoNewtons can be detected and probed with AFM. AFM has become very useful in biological sc...
متن کاملModeling of the intermolecular Force-Induced Adhesion in Freestanding Nanostructures Made of Nano-beams
Among the intermolecular interactions, the Casimir and van der Waals forces are the most important forces that highly affect the behavior of nanostructures. This paper studies the effect of such forces on the adhesion of cantilever freestanding nanostructures. The nanostructures are made of a freestanding nano-beam which is suspended between two upper and lower conductive surfaces. The linear s...
متن کاملProbing Intermolecular Forces and Potentials with Magnetic Feedback Chemical Force Microscopy
Magnetic feedback chemical force microscopy (MF-CFM) was used to map the complete force profile between hydroxyland carboxyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in aqueous solution. The snap-to-contact and snap-out instabilities intrinsic to force-displacement measurements made with weak spring constant cantilevers were eliminated by using a cantilever with an attached magnetic particle...
