Abstract
In this paper we have considered the electrostatic force between a line of charge and a spherical AFM
tip. We considered both conducting tips as well as dielectric ones. The mathematical expressions can be
used to measure, by fitting, the charge density of the line. These expressions and graphs should prove
useful for an experimentalist operating an atomic force microscope. (from Conclusion)
