Balancing Van der Waals force with a spring
Homework Statement An AFM tip has a spring constant k, a colloidal bead with radius r is glues onto the cantilever tip. Derive an expression and plot the deformation of the cantilever spring, Δx, as a function of distance the tip of the cantilever is moved towards another bead of the same...- creemore
