Abstract
The force microscope provides the most flexible of surface force measuremen t techniques for probing the richness and complexity of surface interaction s. The technique is reviewed over the past 3 years for developments in inst rumentation, colloidal force measurement, and nano-mechanical measurements on single molecules. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
