+  abstract = {Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been a powerful
+    instrument that provides nanoscale imaging of surface features,
+    mainly of rigid metal or ceramic surfaces that can be insulators
+    as well as conductors. Since it has been demonstrated that AFM
+    could be used in aqueous environment such as in water or various
+    buffers from which physiological condition can be maintained, the
+    scope of the application of this imaging technique has been
+    expanded to soft biological materials. In addition, the main usage
+    of AFM has been to image the material and provide the shape of
+    surface, which has also been diversified to molecular-recognition
+    imaging - functional force imaging through force spectroscopy and
+    modification of AFM cantilevers. By immobilizing of certain
+    molecules at the end of AFM cantilever, specific molecules or
+    functionalities can be detected by the combination of intrinsic
+    feature of AFM and chemical modification technique of AFM
+    cantilever. The surface molecule that is complementary to the
+    molecule at the end of AFM probe can be investigated via
+    specificity of molecule-molecule interaction.(cont.) Thus, this
+    AFM cantilever chemistry, or chemical functionalization of AFM
+    cantilever for the purpose of chemomechanical surface
+    characterization, can be considered as an infinite source of
+    applications important to understanding biological materials and
+    material interactions. This thesis is mainly focused on three
+    parts: (1) AFM cantilever chemistry that introduces specific
+    protocols in details such as adsorption method, gold chemistry,
+    and silicon nitride cantilever modification; (2) validation of
+    cantilever chemistry such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
+    (XPS), AFM blocking experiment, and fluorescence microscopy,
+    through which various AFM cantilever chemistry is verified; and
+    (3) application of cantilever chemistry, especially toward the
+    potential of force spectroscopy and the imaging of biological
+    material surfaces.},
