Abstract
The present invention relates to an atomic force microscope for evaluating a surface of a sample, comprising a sample holder, having a first zone suitable for receiving the sample mounted in a stationary manner, a probe having a tip able to be positioned facing the surface of the sample, the microscope being configured to allow an adjustment of a position of the tip relative to the surface, and a support, the sample holder having at least one second zone, separate from the first zone and stationary relative to the support, the sample holder being deformable so as to allow a relative movement of the first zone with respect to the second zone, and the microscope comprising a detector able to detect a movement of the first zone relative to the second zone.
