Abstract:In this paper, the vibrational behavior of the atomic force microscope (AFM) on a graphene sheet sample was analyzed using a multi-scale model. The cantilever and silicone tip base were simulated using continuum mechanics and finite element modeling, while the tip apex was modeled using Tersoff potential and structural mechanics modeling. The modified Morse potential was used to model the single-layer graphene, and the Lennard-jones potential was employed as nonlinear springs to model the interactions between … Show more
