A simple and accurate method for calibrating the oscillation amplitude of tuning-fork based AFM sensors

We have developed a simple and accurate method for calibrating the amplitude of vibration of quartz tuning fork sensors commonly used in atomic force- and near field optical-microscopy. Unlike interferometric methods, which require a complex optical setup, the method we present requires only a simpl...
