The dissipation of energy in dynamic force microscopy is usually described in terms of an adhesion hysteresis mechanism. This mechanism should become less efficient with increasing temperature. To verify this prediction we have measured topography and dissipation data with dynamic force microscopy in the temperature range from 100 K up to 300 K. We used 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic-dianhydride (PTCDA) grown on KBr(001), both materials exhibiting a strong dissipation signal at large frequency shifts. At room temperature, the energy dissipated into the sample (or tip) is 1.9 eV/cycle for PTCDA and 2.7 eV/cycle for KBr, respectively, and is in good agreement with an adhesion hysteresis mechanism. The energy dissipation over the PTCDA surface decreases with increasing temperature yielding a negative temperature coefficient. For the KBr substrate, we find the opposite behaviour: an increase of dissipated energy with increasing temperature. While the negative temperature coefficient in case of PTCDA agrees rather well with the adhesion hysteresis model, the positive slope found for KBr points to a hitherto unknown dissipation mechanism.

We report on the first measurement of a temperature dependence of the Casimir-Polder force. This measurement was obtained by positioning a nearly pure 87-Rb Bose-Einstein condensate a few microns from a dielectric substrate and exciting its dipole os
cillation. Changes in the collective oscillation frequency of the magnetically trapped atoms result from spatial variations in the surface-atom force. In our experiment, the dielectric substrate is heated up to 605 K, while the surrounding environment is kept near room temperature (310 K). The effect of the Casimir-Polder force is measured to be nearly 3 times larger for a 605 K substrate than for a room-temperature substrate, showing a clear temperature dependence in agreement with theory.
The dependence of the Casimir force on material properties is important for both future applications and to gain further insight on its fundamental aspects. Here we derive a general theory of the Casimir force for low-conducting compounds, or poor me
tals. For distances in the micrometer range, a large variety of such materials is described by universal equations containing a few parameters: the effective plasma frequency, dissipation rate of the free carriers, and electric permittivity in the infrared range. This theory can also describe inhomogeneous composite materials containing small regions with different conductivity. The Casimir force for mechanical systems involving samples made with compounds that have a metal-insulator transition shows an abrupt large temperature dependence of the Casimir force within the transition region, where metallic and dielectric phases coexist.
Frequency dependent dynamic behavior in Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) implemented on a beam-deflection atomic force microscope (AFM) is analyzed using a combination of modeling and experimental measurements. The PFM signal comprises contributi
ons from local electrostatic forces acting on the tip, distributed forces acting on the cantilever, and three components of the electromechanical response vector. These interactions result in the bending and torsion of the cantilever, detected as vertical and lateral PFM signals. The relative magnitudes of these contributions depend on geometric parameters of the system, the stiffness and frictional forces of tip-surface junction, and operation frequencies. The dynamic signal formation mechanism in PFM is analyzed and conditions for optimal PFM imaging are formulated. The experimental approach for probing cantilever dynamics using frequency-bias spectroscopy and deconvolution of electromechanical and electrostatic contrast is implemented.
Domains walls and topological defects in ferroelectric materials have emerged as a powerful new paradigm for functional electronic devices including memory and logic. Similarly, wall interactions and dynamics underpin a broad range of mesoscale pheno
mena ranging from giant electromechanical responses to memory effects. Exploring the functionalities of individual domain walls, their interactions, and controlled modifications of the domain structures is crucial for applications and fundamental physical studies. However, the dynamic nature of these features severely limits studies of their local physics since application of local biases or pressures in piezoresponse force microscopy induce wall displacement as a primary response. Here, we introduce a fundamentally new approach for the control and modification of domain structures based on automated experimentation whereby real space image-based feedback is used to control the tip bias during ferroelectric switching, allowing for modification routes conditioned on domain states under the tip. This automated experiment approach is demonstrated for the exploration of domain wall dynamics and creation of metastable phases with large electromechanical response.
We review a new implementation of Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) in which the dissipation signal of frequency modulation atomic force microscopy (FM-AFM) is used for dc bias voltage feedback (D-KPFM). The dissipation arises from an oscillating
electrostatic force that is coherent with the tip oscillation, which is caused by applying the ac voltage between the tip and sample. The magnitude of the externally induced dissipation is found to be proportional to the effective dc bias voltage, which is the difference between the applied dc voltage and the contact potential difference. Two different implementations of D-KPFM are presented. In the first implementation, the frequency of the applied ac voltage, $f_mathrm{el}$, is chosen to be the same as the tip oscillation ($f_mathrm{el} = f_mathrm{m}$: $1omega$D-KPFM). In the second one, the ac voltage frequency, $f_mathrm{el}$, is chosen to be twice the tip oscillation frequency ($f_mathrm{el}= 2 f_mathrm{m}$: $2omega$D-KPFM). In $1omega$D-KPFM, the dissipation is proportional to the electrostatic force, which enables the use of a small ac voltage amplitude even down to $approx 10$,mV. In $2omega$D-KPFM, the dissipation is proportional to the electrostatic force gradient, which results in the same potential contrast as that obtained by FM-KPFM. D-KPFM features a simple implementation with no lock-in amplifier and faster scanning as it requires no low frequency modulation. The use of a small ac voltage amplitude in $1omega$D-KPFM is of great importance in characterizing of technically relevant materials in which their electrical properties can be disturbed by the applied electric field. $2omega$D-KPFM is useful when more accurate potential measurement is required. The operations in $1omega$ and $2omega$D-KPFM can be switched easily to take advantage of both features at the same location on a sample.
