An atomic force microscope using optical lever detection has been used to study the friction between muscovite mica and a tungsten tip. The frictional force is shown to vary laterally with the periodicity of the hexagonal layer of SiO4 units that forms the cleavage plane of mica. The frictional force varies linearly with normal force, giving a coefficient of friction of 0.09.
