==Non-contact mode== In the non-contact region of the potential energy curve, attractive forces dominate and are measured. What is observed is a an increase in the amplitude of the oscillations of the vibrating probe, translated into a change in attractive forces. |

Fun facts
High vacuum is not necessary. Piezoelectric position control system. The cantilever: V-shaped or single beam. V-shaped: high deflection sensitivity, not sensitive to torque. Single beam: vice-versa. Material used: diamond, tungsten, silicon. Artifacts: drift, non-linear hysterisis of piezoelectric.
