The paper discusses general questions of friction and wear from the point of material sensitivity in AFM studies. The depth of generated grooves after scanning under high load proved a tool of material characterization. The erosion depth was found to sensitively depend on the scanning speed. A model for quantitative discussion of this phenomenon is presented, which also explains the relation between external load and lateral friction force.
