Tapping Mode AFM Probe, Long Cantilever

型号:PPP-NCLR

品牌:nanoworld

The new PointProbe® Plus (PPP) combines the well-known features of the proven PointProbe® series such as high application versatility and compatibility with most commercial SPMs with a further reduced and more reproducible tip radius as well as a more defined tip shape. The excellent tip radius and the minimized variation in tip shape provide more reproducible images and enhanced resolution.

NANOSENSORS? PPP-NCLR AFM probes are designed for non-contact mode or tapping mode AFM (also known as: attractive or dynamic mode). The NCL type is offered as an alternative to NANOSENSORS? high frequency non contact type (NCH). PPP-NCLR is recommended if the feedback loop of the microscope does not accept high frequencies (400 kHz) or if the detection system needs a minimum cantilever length > 125 ?m. Compared to the high frequency non-contact type NCH the maximum scanning speed is slightly reduced. This probe type combines high operation stability with outstanding sensitivity and fast scanning ability.
 
The probe offers unique features:

  • excellent tip radius of curvature
  • highly doped silicon to dissipate static charge
  • Al coating on detector side of cantilever
  • high mechanical Q-factor for high sensitivity
  • precise alignment of the cantilever position (within +/- 2 ?m) when used with the Alignment Chip
  • compatible with PointProbe® Plus XY-Alignment Series

Coating Description

The reflex coating is an approximately 30 nm thick aluminum coating on the detector side of the cantilever which enhances the reflectivity of the laser beam by a factor of about 2.5. Furthermore it prevents light from interfering within the cantilever. The virtually stress-free coating is bending the cantilever less than 2% of the cantilever length.
