Additional Info
AFM probes of the 3XC series feature three different AFM cantilevers for various measurement modes:
- 500DC - Contact mode AFM cantilever
- 240AC - Soft tapping mode AFM cantilever for imaging soft samples
- 200AC - Standard tapping mode AFM cantilever
The tetrahedral AFM tips are located precisely at the free ends of the AFM cantilevers. This allows the AFM tips to be positioned accurately over the area of interest on the sample surface.
The gold coated AFM tips are suitable for biological applications, AFM tip functionalization and custom applications. The overall gold coating ensures inertness and electrical conductivity, as well as high and stable laser reflectivity in air, vacuum, liquid and aggressive chemical environments.
OPUS AFM probes are the ideal replacement for the discontinued Olympus®* AFM probes.
