Frictional-Force Imaging and Friction Mechanisms with a Lattice Periodicity
Abstract The atomic force / lateral force microscope (AFM/LFM) using the optical lever method works as a two-dimensional frictional-force microscope (2D-FFM) in case of the atomically flat sample surface. On an atomic scale, the sliding body cannot be approximated to a uniform one but becomes a periodic one. As a result, the friction motion shows a lattice periodicity and becomes two-dimensional, because of the symmetry breaking of the stick-point distribution along the sliding (scanning) direction. Using a 2D-FFM, we can investigate the elementary process of the friction under the elastic deformation region, i.e., the two-dimensional nature of the atomic-scale friction with a lattice periodicity. Here, we show how to analyze the experimentally obtained 2D-FFM image patterns and how to deduce the load dependence of the effective adhesive region and also the stick-point distributions.
