Abstract
Electrostatic force microscopy has evolved as a standard tool for electrical characterization of surfaces with high lateral resolution. Key to its success is an accurate and informative model of the cantilever capacitance. In this brief review, we summarize the progress made in the dielectric characterization of surfaces using electrostatic force microscopy and discuss the development of various models to analytically describe the capacitive forces between the cantilever tip and sample. We include a discussion of the recent extension of these measurements to the liquid environment.
