The use of tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) for detecting mid IR absorption can provide nanoscale chemical information. Several studies report on successful applications for qualitative characterization of biomaterials [1]. Implementing such methods for quantitative evaluation of chemical sample compositions requires further understanding of underlying physical processes [2]. In general, the surface of biological cells and tissue is rough on a sub-micron scale. This may cause artifacts in signal detection due to non-planar interactions with the AFM tip. We use structured polymer layers to investigate implications of sample topography on the signal intensity in mid-IR photo-induced force microscopy (PiF-IR). -- [1] Wang et al.
