AFM probes with tip apex visible from the top. These tips are used for precise positioning of tip apex on sample or for colocalized measurements with a laser (AFM+Raman, TERS, s-SNOM).
Tip parameters:
Tip diameter: typical 6 nm, guaranteed 10 nm.
Tip height: 14 - 16 um
Available variants:
VIT_P - resonance frequence 200 - 400 kHz (typical 300 kHz), withou reflexive coating, without conductive coating
VIT_P/IR - resonance frequence 200 - 400 kHz (typical 300 kHz), Au reflexive coating, without conductive coating, tip diameter 30 nm
VIT_P_C-A - resonance frequence 8 - 25 kHz (typical 16 kHz), Al reflexive coating, without conductive coating
VIT_P_C/Pt - resonance frequence 8 - 25 kHz (typical 16 kHz), Pt reflexive coating, Pt conductive coating, tip diameter 25 - 35 nm
VIT_P/Pt - resonance frequence 200 - 400 kHz (typical 300 kHz), Pt reflexive coating, Pt conductive coating, tip diameter 25 - 35 nm
