PPP-LFMR datasheet
AFM Probe Type: PPP-LFMR
Product Description:
For lateral or friction force microscopy NANOSENSORS™ offers a special type of AFM probe (LFM: lateral force microscopy). This sensor type is optimized for a high sensitivity to lateral or friction forces by an extremely soft, thin cantilever.
The probe offers unique features:
- excellent tip radius of curvature
- highly doped 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 µm) in conjunction with the usage
of the alignment chip
- compatible with PointProbe® Plus XY-Alignment Series
This product features alignment grooves on the backside of the holder chip.

| Cant. | Length | Width | Thickness | Force Const. | Res. Freq. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 225 µm(215 - 235 µm)* | 48 µm(40 - 55 µm)* | 1 µm(0.1 - 2 µm)* | 0.2 N/m(0.01 - 1.87 N/m)* | 23 kHz(1 - 57 kHz)* |
AFM Tips:
| on Cant. | Shape | Tip Radius |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Standard | <7 nm( < 10 nm guaranteed ) |
* guaranteed range
Coating:
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.
