Efforts are being expended to use Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) cantilevers as tribometers, i.e., as probes altering the volume of suitable samples, thereby measuring tip and/or sample wear and friction at the nano/ microscale
Since friction and wear at the macroscale are the result of asperities interactions, such experiments are of great importance for better understanding of tribological processes
