Advances in atomic force microscopy
TL;DR: The most widely used technique for atomic-resolution force microscopy in vacuum is frequency-modulation AFM (FM-AFM), as well as other dynamic methods as discussed by the authors.

Atomic Resolution of the Silicon (111)-(7x7) Surface by Atomic Force Microscopy
TL;DR: A force detection scheme that makes use of a modified cantilever beam and senses the force gradient through frequency modulation is described, achieving high resolution under ultrahigh-vacuum conditions with the force microscope for reactive surfaces.
High-speed force sensor for force microscopy and profilometry utilizing a quartz tuning fork
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel technique is employed which simplifies the interpretation of the data and increases the imaging speed by at least one order of magnitude compared to previous implementations, and the variation of the imaging signal with distance fits well to a Hertzian contact model.
The force needed to move an atom on a surface.

TL;DR: It is found that the force that it takes to move an atom depends strongly on the adsorbate and the surface, and the lateral force component plays the dominant role for moving metal atoms on metal surfaces.
Measuring the Charge State of an Adatom with Noncontact Atomic Force Microscopy

TL;DR: It is shown that a tuning-fork atomic force microscope (AFM) operating in a noncontact mode at cryogenic temperatures can resolve the charge state of gold and silver atoms absorbed on a sodium chloride film.
