When imaged in Tapping Mode, we can see that the position of the lamella in trace- and retrace-images is shifted (figures 3 and 4). The lamella is dragged by the tip towards the scan direction and slips away (see figure 7). Of course, those images do not represent the true structure of the surface. To avoid this \u201cdrag-and-slip\u201d effect the lamella was imaged with a NANOSENSORS\u2122 Heartbeat Cantilever in a low force interaction mode (ScanAsyst\u00ae, figures 5 and 6). When overlaying cross-sections from trace and retrace of the images it becomes clear that the NANOSENSORS\u2122 Heartbeat Cantilever images are superimposable and depict the sample precisely (figure 8).<a href=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig34-1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1072\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1072\" src=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig34-1.jpg\" alt=\"ScnAsstLmll_fig34\" width=\"1190\" height=\"612\" data-wp-pid=\"1072\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig56-1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1074\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1074\" src=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig56-1.jpg\" alt=\"ScnAsstLmll_fig56\" width=\"1188\" height=\"612\" data-wp-pid=\"1074\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig78-1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1075\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1075\" src=\"https:\/\/nanosensors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ScnAsstLmll_fig78-1.jpg\" alt=\"ScnAsstLmll_fig78\" width=\"1141\" height=\"544\" data-wp-pid=\"1075\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A thin and very flexible polymer lamella with a high aspect ratio should be characterized by Atomic Force Microscopy.
