Optimized positioning through maximized tip visibility
NanoWorld Arrow™ NC 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 Arrow™ 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. These probes feature a rectangular cantilever with a triangular free end and a tetrahedral tip with a height of 10 - 15 µm.
Additionally this probe offers a typical tip radius of curvature of less than 10 nm.
The unique Arrow™ shape with the tip position at the very end of the cantilever allows easy positioning of the tip on the area of interest.
The reflex coating on the detector side of the cantilever enhances its reflectance and prevents light from interfering within the cantilever.
