Friction, Adhesion, and Deformation: Dynamic Measurements with the Atomic Force Microscope
نویسندگان
چکیده
A selection of recent experimental and theoretical work involving the atomic force microscope is reviewed, with the focus being upon dynamic measurements. Four topics are covered: calibration techniques for the friction force microscope, quantitative measurements of friction and the effect of adhesion, measurement and theory for the deformation and adhesion of viscoelastic particles, and the interaction and adhesion of hydrophobic surfaces due to bridging nanobub-

Dynamic Surface Force Measurement. 2. Friction and the Atomic Force Microscope
The mechanism and geometry of force measurement with the atomic force microscope are analyzed in detail. The effective spring constant to be used in force measurement is given in terms of the cantilever spring constant. Particular attention is paid to possible dynamic effects. Theoretical calculations show that inertial effects may be neglected in most regimes, the exception being when relative...
متن کاملDynamic effects in friction and adhesion through cooperative rupture and formation of supramolecular bonds.
We introduce a molecular toolkit for studying the dynamics in friction and adhesion from the single molecule level to effects of multivalency. As experimental model system we use supramolecular bonds established by the inclusion of ditopic adamantane connector molecules into two surface-bound cyclodextrin molecules, attached to a tip of an atomic force microscope (AFM) and to a flat silicon sur...
متن کاملDynamic modeling and nonlinear vibration simulation of piezoelectric micro-beam in self sensing mode of atomic force microscope
Nowadays, atomic force microscope is considered as a useful tool in the determination of intermolecular forces and surface topography with the resolution of nanometers. In this kind of microscope, micro cantilever is considered as the heart of the microscope and is used as a measuring tool. This paper is aimed towards investigating the behavior of a piezoelectric micro cantilever with a triang...
متن کاملStudies of Surfactant Behaviour and Model Surfaces Relevant to Flotation Deinking
The objective of this work was to investigate the behaviour of some model surfactants used in the deinking process, namely, sodium oleate and two ethoxylated nonionic surfactants (C12E6 and C14E6) as well as to investigate the suitability of various model substrates for mimicking interactions in technical systems. The influence of the adsorption to the air water interface has been measured by...
متن کاملProbing nanotribological and electrical properties of organic molecular films with atomic force microscopy.
Structural aspects of organic molecular films, such as disordering, packing density, molecular bending or tilts, and phase separation, influence electrical properties as well as friction and adhesion. This indicates a correlation between nanomechanical and charge transport properties of molecular films at the molecular scale. In this review, we highlight the recent studies on correlations betwe...
