A New Elementary Method for Determining the Tip Radius and Young’s Modulus in AFM Spherical Indentations

A New Elementary Method for Determining the Tip Radius and Young’s Modulus in AFM Spherical Indentations

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful tool for characterizing biological materials at the nanoscale utilizing the AFM nanoindentation method. When testing biological materials, spherical indenters are typically employed to reduce the possibility of damaging the sample. The accuracy of determin...
