- This paper proposed new equations for AM-FM AFM validated by simulations and experiments for different types of materials ranges from MPa for biological samples to GPa for Metal-Organic-Framework. This work is the basis of AM-FM bimodal-technique and leads to more publication in this field such as: Nature Protocols, 13, 2890-2907 (2018) and Nanoscale, 11, 15289 (2019). In this paper, for the first time the topography and stiffness-maps of the groups of cerium, oxygen, and sulphur atoms, which are joined by organic linkers, are captured simultaneously. The results show the performance of AFM compete with X-Ray crystallography (led to £450k-EPSRC-EP/V034359/1).
