Adhesion force imaging in air and liquid by adhesion mode atomic force microscopy

Abstract

A new imaging mode for the atomic force microscope (AFM), yielding images mapping the adhesion force between tip and sample, is introduced. The adhesion mode AFM takes a force curve at each pixel by ramping a piezoactuator, moving the silicon-nitride tip up and down towards the sample. During the retrace the tip leaves the sample with an adhesion dip showing up in the force curve. Adhesion force images mapping parameters describing this adhesion dip, such as peak value, width, and area, are acquired on-line together with the sample topography. Imaging in air gives information on the differences in hydrophobicity of sample features. While imaging a mercaptopentadecane-gold layer on glass in demineralized water, the adhesion force could be modulated by adding phosphate buffered saline.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
