AFM Probe Type: PPP-LFMR

Product Description:

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.

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.

Application Modes:

• Lateral Force Microscopy AFM Probes (LFM)
