Title A name given to the resource A comprehensive review on application of atomic force microscopy in Forensic science Subject The topic of the resource Atomic force microscopy (AFM); Fingerprint and questioned document (QD); Quartz grain; Surface morphology; Time since deposition (TSD) Description An account of the resource The primary objective of forensic investigation of a case is to recognize, identify, locate, and examine the evidence. Microscopy is a technique that provides crucial information for resolving a case or advancing the investigation process by analyzing the evidence obtained from a crime scene. It is often used in conjunction with suitable analytical techniques. Various microscopes are employed; scanning probe microscopes are available in diverse forensic analyses and studies. Among these, the atomic force microscope (AFM) is the most commonly used scanning probe technology, offering a unique morphological and physico-chemical perspective for analyzing multiple pieces of evidence in forensic investigations. Notably, it is a non-destructive technique capable of operating in liquid or air without complex sample preparation. The article delves into a detailed exploration of the applications of AFM in the realms of nanomechanical forensics and nanoscale characterization of forensically significant samples. 2024 Elsevier Ltd and Faculty of Forensic and Legal Medicine Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Therassa M.; Aparna N.S.; Jose M.; Dev A.; Isukapatla A.R.
