Diamond-Like-Carbon Coated AFM Probe with 4 Different Cantilevers for Various Applications

  • Diamond-Like-Carbon Coated AFM Probe with 4 Different Cantilevers for Various Applications

    Versatile silicon AFM probe with 4 different cantilevers on a single AFM holder chip. Rotated, monolithic silicon AFM probe with symmetric tip shape for various applications (contact mode, force modulation mode, tapping mode and soft tapping mode).

    High durability and hydrophobicity due to Diamond-Like-Carbon coating on tip side of the cantilever.

    The rotated tips allow for more symmetric representation of high sample features. The consistent tip radii ensure good resolution and reproducibility.

    The AFM holder chip fits most commercial AFM systems as it is industry standard size.

    The main advantage of this product compared to regular, single-cantilever AFM probes is the freedom to choose in the very last moment the right cantilever for each application. You don't need to stock various AFM Probe types any more. Nevertheless, this product is not meant as a substitution to comparable single-cantilever AFM probes, because the geometry of each one of the All-In-One cantilevers differs from the geometry of comparable specialized single-cantilever AFM probes.

    Please note that the aluminum back side coating is not suitable for measurements in liquids!
