This complicates the data interpretation as measurements become highly non-linear. A new dynamic AFM technique in which ultra-small amplitudes are used (as low as 0.15 Angstrom) is able to linearize measurements of nanomechanical phenomena in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and in liquids. Using this new technique we have measured single atom bonding, atomic-scale dissipation and molecular ordering in liquid layers, including water.EnglishAtom bondingLiquid layersMolecular orderingAtomic force microscopyChemical bondsMolecular interactionsMolecular orientationNanostructured materialsUltrahigh vacuumNanomechanicsConference Paperhttps://doi.org/10.1557/PROC-838-O1.810.1557/PROC-838-O1.8
