We present a new method to measure shear forces of liquids in nanometer confinement. A torsionally oscillating atomic force microscope probe (AFM) is approached to the surface. Direct torsional actuation is achieved by a micrometer-scale magnetic bead attached to the back side of the cantilever which experiences a torque by an alternating magnetic field generated by an integrated solenoid.

Dynamic measurements are conducted in a simple liquid (hexadecane) as well as in halogen-free ionic liquids ([trioctylhexylammonium][bis(salicylato)borate]). The experimental data shows changes in the dynamic signals which correlate with jumps in normal force reflecting molecular layering of the liquid. The changes in amplitude and phase of the lateral tip oscillation indicate respective changes of shear dissipation in the confined liquids.
