Cantilever Calibration
  • Hi all,
    I am interested in the wedge calibration method.
    We are using a UHV-FFM with a scan range of 3x3mu m.

    Varenberg (M. Varenberg, I. Etsion & G. Halperin. "An improved wedge calibration method for lateral force in atomic force microscopy". Rev. Sci. Instrum. 74, 3362-7 (2003)) recommends the TGF11 calibration grid. It is rather big for our small scan-ranges but could in principle be used.

    What test grids do you recommend?

    Thanks for help in advance,
    Christian
