NanoWorld AFM Probes
Arrow™ Silicon AFM Probes
Optimized positioning through maximized tip visibility
 

Our new Arrow™ probes are designed for easy tip positioning and high resolution imaging. They fit to all well-known commercial SPMs (Scanning Probe Microscopes). The AFM probe consists of a holding chip with a cantilever which has a tetrahedral tip at its triangular free end.

The probe is entirely made of monolithic, highly doped silicon.

    Available Coatings for the Arrow™ series

    Reflex Coating

    • 30 nm thick Aluminum coating on the backside
    • enhances reflectance of the laser beam by a factor of 2.5
    • prevents light from interfering within the cantilever

    PtIr5 Coating

    • 25nm thick double layer of chromium and platinum iridium5
    • layer on both sides of the product
    • the layer enhances the conductivity and allows electrical contact

    Other Coatings

    The probes of the Arrow™ series can also be supplied with other proven coatings from the
    Pointprobe® series (e.g. gold coating) upon request.
    For availability and price please contact your local distributor.
