  • Abstract
    A mass-spring-damper model has been presented to describe the cantilever-sample dynamics in an atomic force microscope (AFM). Friction has been incorporated in this model by using Johnson-Kendall-Roberts (JKR) theory for elastic contacts. It has been validated by exhibiting some characteristic features (such as stick-slip behavior) observed in experiments with AFMs. A control law has been designed so that the piezoelectric tube in an AFM moves in a desired manner in spite of the friction. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the model and performance of the controllers
