there are only a number of patches of self-
assembled F14H20 molecules show strong
dark contrast in the SP image. Other areas
of the surface are covered with randomly
adsorbed F14H20 molecules and show a
relatively homogeneous potential back-
ground. The surface potential of these
self-assembled structures has a value of
around -0.7V, which is consistent with
predominantly vertical alignment of the
molecular chains.

KFM measurement can be done in either
AM-AM mode or AM-FM mode with the
Keysight 7500 AFM, depending on the
input signal of the surface potential servo.
In general the AM-FM mode has better                       Figure 1. KFM topography (left) and surface potential (right) images of luoroalkane F14H20 self-assembly on Si.
