Abstract

We summarize the results of Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations which model the rupture of a covalent bond in a single molecule atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiment. In our simulations we consider various parameters which could influence the rupture process in an experimental environment and predict that the measured rupture force is most likely to correspond to the bond between the molecule under study and the substrate. Our results are essential for the interpretation of the experiments, and possible repercussions for material failure in adhesive systems are discussed.
