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 AFM tip radius as well as a more defined AFM tip shape. The excellent AFM tip radius and the minimized variation in AFM tip shape provide more reproducible images and enhanced resolution.
The FM type is offered for force modulation microscopy. The force constant of this AFM AFM probe spans the gap between contact and non-contact mode and is specially tailored for the force modulation mode. The PPP-FM AFM tip serves also as a basis for magnetic coatings (MFM). 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:
This product features alignment grooves on the back side of the holder chip.
