SCOUT 70 - AC mode silicon AFM probes
High quality silicon AFM probes suitable for non-contact/soft tapping, force modulation modes in air and on softer samples. Available uncoated or with an aluminium or gold reflective backside coating.
High quality silicon AFM probes suitable for non-contact/soft tapping, force modulation modes in air and on softer samples. Available uncoated or with an aluminium or gold reflective backside coating.
These high quality silicon AFM probes are manufactured to the tightest dimensional tolerances available in the market, offering minimal variation in spring constant and resonant frequency. Available uncoated or with an aluminium or gold reflective backside coating.
Suitable for:
Spring constant: 2 N/m
Resonant frequency: 70 kHz
Supplied in packs of 10 probes.
