Abstract

In the past few years, a quantitative comparison between experimental data and theoretical calculations has been in the focus of advanced research based on Scanning Probe Methods (SPM). Of particular interest has been the interpretation of Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STS) data, the explanation of large corrugation amplitudes in Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM), the investigation of the role of forces in STM, and the study of atom transfer processes between tip and sample. In the field of Scanning Force Microscopy (SFM), a major effort has been placed on measurements and calculations of long-range forces, in particular Van der Waals (VdW) forces, and on their exploitation for high-resolution non-destructive surface profiling. This chapter will provide an overview of the most recent developments in the research areas mentioned above.
