The paper presents an overview and analysis of the most reliable and at the
 same time rather simple theoretical models describing liquid nanomeniscus geometry and
 forces occurring between atomic force microscope (AFM) probe and a real surface.
 There are experimental results in capillary bridge force rupture measured in air, and
 interaction force under water buffer obtained over surfaces of different nature. It is
 shown that the theoretical models quite adequately describe the processes observed
 experimentally and, in particular, bridge ruptures dynamics at the vertical probe
 withdraw for different speeds. Discussed here are some methodological peculiarities and
 nanocapillary force spectroscopy diagnostic capabilities for surface energy mapping,
 prospects of using of a liquid nanomeniscus in local nanochemistry, nanolithography and
 nano-electrochemistry of a surface.
