Type: SSS-SEIH
SuperSharpSilicon - SEIKO INSTRUMENTS microscopes -
Non-contact mode - High force constant
NanoWorld Pointprobe® SEIHR probes are designed for owners of a Seiko Instruments microscope using the non-contact mode. All 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.

For enhanced resolution of nanostructures and microroughness we have developed an advanced tip manufacturing process leading to unrivalled sharpness of the SuperSharpSilicon tip.

This probe offers unique features:

  • Typical tip radius of curvature of 2 nm
  • Guaranteed tip radius of curvature 5 nm (yield >80%)
  • Half cone angle < 10° at the last 200 nm of the tip

  • Technical Data Value Range*
