The AFM can operate in either a "constant force" mode or a "constant height" mode. ... The constant height mode keeps the sample at a set height then measures the deflection of the laser on the photodiode. 2, record 1, English, - atomic%20force%20microscope%20in%20constant%20height%20mode

Microscope à force atomique. [...] De même que pour le STM [microscope à effet tunnel], on distingue deux types de fonctionnement : [...] a) Balayage à hauteur constante : durant la mesure, on maintient l'échantillon à une altitude constante et on enregistre le mouvement vertical du levier. Dans ce mode de fonctionnement, c'est l'inertie du levier qui impose la vitesse de déplacement de l'échantillon. Si la vitesse venait à être trop élevée, la pointe n'arriverait pas à suivre fidèlement les contours de la surface d'où une déformation de l'image, et même des dommages éventuels sur l'objet. 2, record 1, French, - microscope%20%C3%A0%20force%20atomique%20%C3%A0%20balayage%20%C3%A0%20hauteur%20constante
