NanoWorld Pointprobe® NCH probes are designed for non-contact or tapping mode imaging. This probe type combines high operation stability with outstanding sensitivity and fast scanning ability.
All SPM and AFM probes of the Pointprobe® series are made from monolithic silicon which is highly doped to dissipate static charge. They are chemically inert and offer a high mechanical Q-factor for high sensitivity. The tip is shaped like a polygon based pyramid with a height of 10 - 15 µm.
Additionally this probe offers typical tip radius of curvature of less than 8 nm.
The reflex coating on the detector side of the cantilever enhances its reflectance and prevents light from interfering within the cantilever.
