Abstract

CO-terminated tips currently provide the best spatial resolution obtainable in atomic force microscopy. Due to their chemical inertness, they allow us to probe interactions dominated by Pauli repulsion. The small size and inertness of the oxygen front atom yields unprecedented resolution of organic molecules, metal clusters, and surfaces. We study the capability of CO-terminated tips to laterally ...
