                Figure 2. Elastic property characterizations. (A) Nanoindentation Load–displacement curves measured on the (001) plane of CIPS-IPS
                crystal. The blue arrows indicate pop-ins due to fracture damage. (B) The contact resonant frequency image measured by CR-AFM.
                (C) The friction force image measured by LFM. (D) The phase image measured by PFM. (B-D) and Figure 1D are in the same region.
                (E) The resonance frequencies of the cantilever from free resonance to contact resonance on HOPG and CIPS-IPS. (F and G) CR-AFM
                mapping of the first-order contact resonance frequency in HOPG and CIPS-IPS, respectively. Inset: Frequency histogram and Gauss
                fitting curves. (H) The relationship between the normalized contact stiffness k*/klever and the relative tip position γ.

                      r
               indenter), and A is the projected area of the indentation at the contact depth h . For a Berkovich tip,
