Surface science

instrument that measures forces between two crossed mica surfaces as a function of separation, using interference fringes to read distance.

In surface science, surface force apparatus refers to instrument that measures forces between two crossed mica surfaces as a function of separation, using interference fringes to read distance. This meaning comes from Israelachvili (1972) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences.[1]
