Abstract :
A simple relocation technique for atomic force microscopy (AFM), which takes advantage of multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT), is used for investigating repeatedly the imaging of some specific species on the whole substrate with a high relocation accuracy of tens of nanometers. As an example of the application of this technique, TappingMode AFM ex situ study of the morphology transition induced by solvent treatment in a triblock copolymer thin film has been carried out.
