Imaging high-speed friction at the nanometer scale

Imaging high-speed friction at the nanometer scale

It has been a challenge to characterize microscopic origins of friction at high velocities. Here authors extend atomic force microscopy to develop a dynamic technique combining force sensitivity and spatial resolution and able to probe, at each image pixel, frictional forces at velocities up to seve...
