abstract = {In the present work we report on our ab initio
pseudopotential calculations based on density functional
theory to investigate the atomic-scale behavior of clean
silicon tips in noncontact atomic force microscopy (AFM).
The AFM tip structures are modeled by silicon clusters with
[111] and [001] termination. The structural changes induced
by their reciprocal interaction are investigated by
calculating the short-range chemical forces during a
vertical approach and retraction of one silicon tip on top
of another tip. For a specific tip geometry with [111]
termination, the theoretical force curves exhibit an
hysteretic behavior only at the first approach and
retraction cycle. The absence of this effect at the second
scan is due to sharpening of the initially blunt tip via
short-range chemical forces. A specific finger print of the
[001]-oriented tip is an energy dissipation induced by a
breaking and formation process of a chemical bond between
two silicon atoms under its apex atom.},
