MESP-RC-V2

MFM Probes, 5N/m, 150kHz, ~ 400Oe, ~ 1e-13EMU, 10-Pack

  • Bruker's new MESP-RC-V2 probe replaces the legacy MESP-RC probe.

    Built on the high-performance RTESP-150 AFM probe, the MESP-RC-V2's hard Cobalt-Chromium coating is tailored for high-sensitivity and magnetic contrast. This cost-effective probe has a nominal tip radius of 35 nm for excellent lateral resolution for MFM, as well as other electrical and capacitance applications requiring a cantilever with conductive coating.

    The MESP-RC-V2 has a nominal coercivity of 400 Oe (medium), and a magnetic moment of 1e-13 EMU (medium).

    The reflex side of the cantilever has a Co-Cr coating for increased reflectivity up to 2.5 times that of an uncoated probe.

    The new design provides:

    • Tighter dimensional specifications for improved probe to probe consistency
    • Tighter alignment of the tip apex to the cantilever resulting in easier laser positioning over the tip
    • Improved probe quality and aesthetics
  • This probe uses a rotated tip to provide a more symmetric representation of features over 200nm.

  • The Cobalt-Chromium reflective coating on the backside of the cantilever increases the laser signal (A+B) by up to 2.5 times. Although not necessary for general imaging, reflective coating is recommended for thin cantilevers (< 2.5 µm), highly reflective samples, and machine vision applications.
