The understanding of properties of polymer surfaces is crucial for the development of new applications in areas such as adhesion, wetting, and friction. 1À6 This effort is hindered, however, by the fact that in most cases it is not appropriate to extrapolate physical parameters of the bulk material as the surface’s. Numerous reports have shown that polymeric material near a free surface can have properties which deviate considerably from the bulk. 7À13 Thus, precise quantitative surface mechanical characterizations have been a long-standing academic and technological challenge.Atomic force microscopy (AFM), particularly the amplitudemodulation dynamic AFM (AM-AFM), is a versatile technique for probing the structure and properties of a wide range of materials with high spatial resolution and capacity to work under various conditions. Recently, AM-AFM has been developed to characterize nanoscale material properties by measuring the phase shift ϕ, arising from the energy dissipated, Edis, during tipÀ sample interactions
