Kelvin probe force microscopy in liquid using electrochemical force microscopy
Conventional closed loop-Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) has emerged as a powerful technique for probing electric and transport phenomena at the solid-gas interface. The extension of KPFM capabilities to probe electrostatic and electrochemical phenomena at the solid-liquid interface is of interest for a broad range of applications from energy storage to biological systems. However, the ope...
متن کاملPractical aspects of Kelvin probe force microscopy
We discuss practical aspects of Kelvin probe force microscopy ~KFM! which are important to obtain stable images of the electric surface potential distribution at high spatial resolution ~,100 nm! and high potential sensitivity ~,1 mV! on conducting and nonconducting samples. We compare metal-coated and semiconducting tips with respect to their suitability for KFM. Components of the metal coatin...
متن کاملSurface potential measurement of bacteria using Kelvin probe force microscopy.
Surface potential is a commonly overlooked physical characteristic that plays a dominant role in the adhesion of microorganisms to substrate surfaces. Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) is a module of atomic force microscopy (AFM) that measures the contact potential difference between surfaces at the nano-scale. The combination of KPFM with AFM allows for the simultaneous generation of surfac...
متن کاملDistinguishing magnetic and electrostatic interactions by a Kelvin probe force microscopy–magnetic force microscopy combination
The most outstanding feature of scanning force microscopy (SFM) is its capability to detect various different short and long range interactions. In particular, magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is used to characterize the domain configuration in ferromagnetic materials such as thin films grown by physical techniques or ferromagnetic nanostructures. It is a usual procedure to separate the topograp...
متن کاملResolution and contrast in Kelvin probe force microscopy
The combination of atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe technology is a powerful tool to obtain high-resolution maps of the surface potential distribution on conducting and nonconducting samples. However, resolution and contrast transfer of this method have not been fully understood, so far. To obtain a better quantitative understanding, we introduce a model which correlates the measured po...
