Calibration of quartz tuning fork spring constants for non-contact atomic force microscopy: direct mechanical measurements and simulations
Quartz tuning forks are being increasingly employed as sensors in non-contact atomic force microscopy especially in the “qPlus” design. In this study a new and easily applicable setup has been used to determine the static spring constant at several positions along the prong of the tuning fork. The r...
