Q-AR5 datasheet
AFM Probe Type:
Q-AR5
Premounted on a T-Plate for Quesant AFM systems
Product Description:
NanoWorld Pointprobe® NCL probes are designed for non-contact or tapping™ mode imaging and offer an alternative to our high frequency non-contact type NCH. The NCL type is recommended if the feedback loop of the microscope does not accept high frequencies or if the detection system needs a minimum cantilever length (> 125 µm). This probe combines high operation stability with outstanding sensitivity. Compared to the high frequency non-contact type NCH the maximum scanning speed is slightly reduced. 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.
For measurements on samples with sidewall angles approaching 90° we offer specially tailored tips showing a high aspect ratio portion with near-vertical sidewalls.
These probes offer unique features:
- length of the high aspect ratio portion of the tip > 2 µm
- typical aspect ratio of this portion in the order of 7:1 (when viewed from side as well as along
cantilever axis)
- half cone angle of the high aspect ratio portion typically < 5°
- excellent tip radius of curvature
