An analysis of atomic manipulation, intermolecular resolution and the artefacts of dynamic force microscopy

In this thesis we go through a journey of atomic manipulation of Pb dimers on Si(100), then we examine the limitations of AFM in inter- molecular resolution and we take a closer look at a very promising technique named simultaneous STM/AFM which opens new horizons in the field but is part of an ongo...
