4. 2. Reconstructing force from harmonic motion

   Author : Daniel Platz; David B. Haviland; John E. Sader; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oscillator; force spectroscopy; atomic force microscopy; intermodulation; multifrequency; inverse problem; high quality factor;

   Abstract : High-quality factor oscillators are often used in measurements of verysmall force since they exhibit an enhanced sensitivity in the narrow frequencyband around resonance. Forces containing frequencies outside this frequencyband are often not detectable and the total force acting on the oscillatorremains unknown. READ MORE
