Ln this report, the irreversible variation of mass of the probe tip of an atomic force microscope (AFM) is considered from theoretical and numerical points of view through statistical methods. The tip-sample interaction due to the intermittent-contact operating mode of an AFM is modelled as a double-well potential where the wear mechanism, which reveals itself as mass sticking to the probe tip, is described as a transition between the two potential wells. We evaluate the interaction of a silicon nitride AFM/FFM tip with gold in order to compare the results with those obtained from previous experimental and numerical studies.
