Atomic resolution by noncontact atomic force microscopy with a self-sensing piezoelectric force sensor is presented. The sensor has a stiffness of 1800 N/m and is operated with sub-nanometer amplitudes, allowing atomic resolution with relatively bluntly etched tungsten tips. Sensitivity and noise are discussed.
