CONDUCTIVE PROBES

  • AppNano offers special metal coating on our highly conductive doped silicon probes for advanced AFM applications like electric force microscopy (EFM) and magnetic force microscopy (MFM)
  • Optimal thickness and highest quality metal coating coupled with our proprietary process achieve best conductivity (sensitivity and lifetime) without compromising tip sharpness (high resolution)
  • Gold coated (GG) probes offer excellent conductivity and chemical stability, are suitable for intermittent/non-contact EFM applications like Electrostatic force microscopy/KPFM, etc.
  • Platinum-Iridium (Pt-Ir) coated probes offer excellent conductivity and good mechanical stability are optimal for contact as well as non-contact EFM techniques
  • Doped diamond coated probes have excellent wear resistance and conductivity, ideal choice for hard contact studies like SSRM, CAFM, SCM as well as electrostatic FM, KPFM, etc.
  • Our new Titanium nitride (TiN) probes offer best conductivity, voltage stability and very good wear resistance. Recommended for Contact as well as Intermittent/Non-contact EFM studies
  • Cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) coated probes are designed for MFM applications

 

EFM PROBES:

  • For nanoscale electrical characterization, we offer Pt-Ir, gold (GG), boron doped diamond film (DD) and Titanium nitride (TiN) coated probes
  • Coatings available on Contact, Force modulation and Intermittent contact/Non-contact mode levers for various EFM techniques like C-AFM, TUNA, SSRM, SCM, PFM, electrostatic force microscopy, KPFM, etc.

 

PT-IR COATED PROBES:

  • ANSCM series probes are silicon probes coated with Pt-Ir on both sides for EFM applications.
