Abstract

The capillary force was measured by atomic force microscopy between a gold coated sphere mounted on a cantilever and gold surfaces with different roughnesses. For smooth surfaces the capillary adhesive force surpasses in magnitude any dispersion, e.g., van der Waals/Casimir and/or electrostatic forces. A substantial decrease in the capillary force was observed by increasing the roughness ampltitude a few nanometers in the range of 1–10nm. From these measurements two limits can be defined: a smooth limit where a closely macroscopic size contact surface interacts through the capillary force and a rough limit where only a few asperities give a capillary contribution.
