A Classical Molecular Dynamics Study of the Effect of the Atomic Force Microscope Tip Shape, Size and Deformation on the Tribological Properties of the Graphene/Au(111) Interface
Atomic force microscopes are used, besides their principal function as surface imaging tools, in the surface manipulation and measurement of interfacial properties. In particular, they can be modified to measure lateral friction forces that occur during the sliding of the tip against the underlying...
