Detailed measurements of the frequency responses of a series of rectangular atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilever beams, immersed in a range of fluids, have been performed to test the validity and accuracy of the recent theoretical model of Sader [J. Appl. Phys. 84, 64 (1998)]. This theoretical model gives the frequency response of a cantilever beam, that is immersed in a viscous fluid and excited by an arbitrary driving force. Very good agreement between experimental measurements and theoretical calculations is found for all fluids considered. Furthermore, a critical assessment of the well-known inviscid model is presented, which demonstrates that this model is not applicable to AFM cantilever beams in general.
