DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/453500· OSTI ID:501539
The capabilities of Interfacial Force Microscopy (IFM) are illustrated utilizing the following examples: the bonding interaction between chemically distinct end groups on self-assembling molecules adsorbed on the sample and and probe tip; and a study of the effect of morphological defects on the nanomechanical properties of gold single crystal surfaces.
