Written as a reference book for engineers and physicists, this book explores the relation between dynamic atomic force microscopy (AFM) and oscillation theory. Because of its layout, this text can be used as a general introduction to oscillation theory or as an introduction to dynamic AFM.

Matteo Chiesa is the head of the LENS (Laboratory for Nano Science) at Khalifa University. He is also professor with the Arctic University of Norway UIT. His research focuses on the creation and implementation of technologies necessary to adapt the current energy system into a more sustainable, competitive and secure one, in particular the use of properly designed nano in solar energy systems. Prof. Chiesa's 15-years-long research efforts have been pivotal for Masdar in achieving photovoltaic projects promising electricity at record-low prices. With PPA (power purchase agreement) bids reaching as low as 1.35c/kWh, this surge of ultra-cheap installations marks a major milestone for PV technologies. In terms of scholarly contribution, Prof. Chiesa has built a dynamic team that is recognized by his community for consistently attempting the enhancement of the AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) capability.

Sergio Santos is an author in science and law. When the theme for the book was first conceived, he was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at UiT (2019-2022), Norway. S Santos has over a decade of experience in nanoscale science and technology. He is a specialist in dynamic AFM methods. He got his PhD from Leeds University in 2011 on the topic of AFM imaging of macromolecules on surfaces in air.

Tuza Olukan is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at UiT, Norway. He holds a doctorate degree in Material Science and Nanotechnology Engineering under the MIT/MI Collaborative Program at the Khalifa University. His scientific interests rest on the deployment of cutting-edge solutions in addressing scientific and technological challenges with an emphasis on low-cost, sustainable, and, locally sourced materials and resources. His current research effort is geared towards adopting multidisciplinary strategies in the decarbonization, decentralization, and digitalization of the electricity sector especially in remote regions of the world and the Global South countries in general.

Lamiaa Elsherbiny is a PhD student in the Laboratory of Energy of Nanoscience (LENS) group in Khalifa University. She received her Bachelor in sustainable and renewable energy engineering at University of Sharjah. Her work at UoS consisted of modelling the optical properties of Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC). She received her master's degree in mechanical engineering at Khalifa University studying the forecasting performance of different machine learning algorithms of photovoltaic generation in Abu Dhabi. She is currently pursuing her PhD. degree in engineering by studying the impact of quantifying interaction forces on tuning the properties of surfaces using experimental and analytical methods.
