Inference of Hysteretic Vertical and Lateral Forces by Dynamic Force Microscopy

by Prof. Bart Cleuren (Hasselt University)

Europe/Stockholm
Description
A procedure is presented to infer hysteretic tip-sample interaction forces from frequency modulated atomic force spectroscopy measurements at low temperature. In a second step, the interaction potential is reconstructed, whose gradient yields the complete vectorial forces.
