Conductive AFM probes

The AFM tip is micromachined, monolithic Silicon probe, exhibiting excellent uniformity and a sharp tip radius. The consistent tip radius of less than 10 nm gives good resolution and reproducibility.

This probe uses an "on scan angle" symmetric tip to provide a more symmetric representation of features over 200 nm

 

The AFM cantilever is micromachined, monolithic Silicon, exhibiting excellent uniformity.
It provides high quality imaging for all standard atomic force microscopes (AFMs).

The AFM Holder Chip fits most commercial AFMs as it is industry standard size. It is compatible with DI/Veeco AFMs, TM Microscopes, JEOL, Molecular Imaging, and other commercial atomic force microscopes (AFMs).

This product features alignment grooves on the backside of the holder chip.
