Neuchâtel,
January 27, 2006 . The new NANOSENSORS™ Q30K-Plus
AFM tip with a very high Q-factor and an enhanced
signal to noise ratio for UHV applications was introduced
today.
Based
on the well-known PointProbe® Plus AFM
probe NANOSENSORS™ has developed the Q30K-Plus SPM-probe
series especially for UHV applications. For high
sensitivity and a good signal to noise ratio the
new probes are featuring a Q-factor of over 30,000
(up to 50,000) under UHV conditions and a high reflectivity
(even at wavelength of over 800nm).
In
addition to the enhanced Q-factor and the optimized
signal to noise ratio the Q30K-Plus series offers
all features of the PointProbe® plus series
like a minimized variation in tip shape and a typical
tip radius of less than 7nm.
The
Q30K-Plus™ AFM
probe is available in the following types and package
sizes:
PPP-QNCHR-10 for
Non-Contact Mode/Tapping Mode™
