Atomic Force Microscopy

Atomic Force Microscopy is has become an indispensible tool in nanoscience for the fabrication, metrology, manipulation and property characterization of nanostructures. In this tutorial, we will review the physics of the interaction forces between the nanoscale tip and sample, the dynamics of the oscillating tip, and the basic theory of some of the common modes of AFM operation. We will end with a summary of the some of the exciting new applications of Atomic Force Microscopy.
