Atomic Force Microscopy: Lateral-Force Calibration and Force-Curve Analysis

This thesis reflects two advances in atomic force microscopy. The first half is a new lateral force calibration procedure, which, in contrast to existing procedures, is independent of sample and cantilever shape, simple, direct, and quick. The second half is a high-throughput method for processing,...
