Mechanism of Material Removal in Nanomachining of Fused Quartz using AFM Diamond Tip

Nanometer-scale machining experiments on fused quartz surfaces have been performed using an atomic force microscope combined with a two-axis capacitive force/displacement transducer. The minimum normal force fnP required to reproducibly form a groove was about 4.7 µN. The minimum critical...
