Vibrations of free and surface-coupled atomic force microscope cantilevers: Theory and experiment

Rabe, U., Janser, K., Arnold, W.·1996·Review of Scientific Instruments

Abstract

With an optical interferometer, the free vibration spectra and the local vibration amplitude of four rectangular atomic force microscope cantilevers made of silicon have been examined experimentally in a spectral range of 100 kHz to 10 MHz. A good agreement with the flexural wave theory of elastic beams was found. Coupling to torsional vibrations was also observed. When the sensor tip of the cantilever is in contact with a sample surface the resonances are shifted in frequency and the vibration amplitudes along the cantilever change. A method is presented to calculate this frequency shift using a linear approximation for the tip–sample interaction forces, and the results are compared with the frequency shift calculated from the point-mass model. The measured resonance frequencies of a surface-coupled cantilever do not correspond as well to the theoretical ones as in the free case even if the elastic-beam model is used. The reason for the disagreement is found to be the geometry of the commercial cantilevers and the nonlinearity of the tip-sample interaction force.

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.
