Preferred Name

atomic force microscopy

Synonyms

AFM

near field microscopy

scanning force microscopy

Definitions

indirect, molecular-resolution imaging technique in which 3- dimensional tracings of a mobile probe across the specimen's surface are processed by computer into a topological image; in contrast to STM the probe is driven only by the mechanical resistance (topology and viscoelasticity) of the surface.
