Fundamentals Of Atomic Force Microscopy - Part I: Foundations Lessons from Nanoscience: A Lecture Notes

Details about Fundamentals Of Atomic Force Microscopy - Part I: Foundations Lessons from Nanoscience: A Lecture Notes:

The atomic force microscope (AFM) is a highly interdisciplinary instrument that enables measurements of samples in liquid, vacuum or air with unprecedented resolution. The intelligent use of this instrument requires knowledge from many distinct fields of study. These lecture notes aim to provide advanced undergraduates and beginning graduates in all fields of science and engineering with the required knowledge to sensibly use an AFM. Relevant background material is often reviewed in depth and summarized in a pedagogical, self-paced style to provide a fundamental understanding of the scientific principles underlying the use and operation of an AFM. Useful as a study guide to “Fundamentals of AFM”, an online video course available at Suitable for Graduate/Undergraduate Independent Reading and Research Course in AFM (with the combination of book and online videos)
