How to optimize AFM scan parameters

NANOSENSORS™ SSS-FMR AFM probes are designed for force modulation mode.

For enhanced resolution of nanostructures and microroughness we offer our SuperSharpSilicon™ AFM tip with unrivalled sharpness.

The FM type is offered for force modulation microscopy. The force constant of this AFM probe spans the gap between contact and non-contact mode and is specially tailored for the force modulation mode. The SSS-FMR AFM tip serves also as a basis for high resolution AFM tips with magnetic coating SSS-MFMR. Furthermore non-contact or tapping mode operation is possible with the FM AFM tip but with reduced operation stability.

The AFM probe offers unique features:

excellent AFM tip radius of curvature
typical aspect ratio at 200 nm from AFM tip apex in the order of 4:1
monolithic material
highly doped silicon to dissipate static charge
chemically inert
high mechanical Q-factor for high sensitivity

This AFM probe features alignment grooves on the back side of the holder chip.

The reflective coating is an approximately 30 nm thick aluminum coating on the detector side of the AFM cantilever which enhances the reflectivity of the laser beam by a factor of about 2.5. Furthermore it prevents light from interfering within the AFM cantilever. As the coating is nearly stress-free the bending of the AFM cantilever due to stress is less than 2 degrees.
