Platinum Silicide Probes for Contact Mode (PtSi-CONT) are now available
NANOSENSORS™ announced that now all three basic types of the new innovative SPM probes series of wear resistant and highly conductive AFM tips are available.
The new AFM probes feature the best of both worlds of the most commonly used conductive probes for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM): metal coated probes and probes with conductive diamond coating.

NANOSENSORS™ not only uses its know-how to manufacture its well-known standard products. The experts at NANOSENSORS™ also develop many tip versions and other developments that are not commercialized as standard products but are available on demand. We call these customized products “Special Developments”.
The Akiyama-probe has been developed in cooperation with the Institute of Microtechnology (IMT) at the University of Neuchâtel for the NANOSENSORS™ brand that is specialized on cutting edge scanning probes for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) applications. The product is called the Akiyama-probe or A-probe to honour its inventor Dr. Terunobu Akiyama. It is a novel self-sensing and – actuating probe based on a quartz tuning fork combined with a micromachined cantilever for dynamic mode AFM.
The Plateau Tip series based on the well-established NANOSENSORS™ Silicon-SPM-Probes exhibit an intentionally blunt tip with a well-defined circular end-face located at the free end of a micromechanical cantilever. This plateau is formed by focused ion beam milling out of a symmetrically etched tip building a rod on top of a conical tip.
