Research Abstract |
An atomic force microscope with two optical levers was developed to access the possibility of detecting the deflection and torsion of the cantilever. Experiments showed that the sytem is capable of detecting the difference of tip end point displacement along the axis of the cantilever and in the direction normal to the sample surface. When scanning mica, it was shown that the tip end point meanders along discrete stick points. The potential of the microscope was demonstrated.
