Hydrophobic Forces in Free Thin Films of Water in the Presence and Absence of Surfactants
… different system were studied to investigate the forces interacting in thin liquid films. In the former, direct force measurements were conducted with bitumen-coated mica surfaces using a Mark IV surface force analyzer. Besides long-range electrostatic repulsive forces at separation distances …

Investigation of Non-DLVO Forces using an Evanescent Wave Atomic Force Microscope
… describes new methods for measuring surface forces using evanescent waves, and applications to non-DLVO forces. An evanescent wave, generated at a solid-liquid interface, is scattered by AFM tips or particles attached to AFM cantilevers. The scattering of this wave is used to determine …
