Abstract

Potential dependence of the friction force between an atomically-flat terrace of Au(100) single crystal and a tip attached to a silicon nitride cantilever of electrochemical atomic force microscope (EC-AFM) have been investigated qualitatively in 0.05 M H2SO4 aqueous solution. It is found that the friction force gains when the potential increases in the potential range between −400 mV and 400 mV vs Hg/Hg2SO4 electrode.
