High resolution magnetic force microscopy plays an important role in the development of magnetic data storage media. Particularly the envisioned increase of the storage density to 1TBit per sqinch within the next five years requires an ongoing development ...
The general idea of Nanotechnology is not new – it has been studied since Nobel laureate Richard Feynman outlined the idea in a speech in 1959 – but it's only recently that the progress carried out in the various fields of material, optic, physic and engin ...
A combined atomic force and scanning electrochemical microscope probe is presented. The probe is electrically insulated except at the very apex of the tip, which has a radius of curvature in the range of 10-15 nm. Steady-state cyclic voltammetry measuremen ...
Recently electrically conducting SPM probes were used as read/write sensor of magneto-resistive nanopillars and ferroelectric domains in the development of >1 Tb/inch2 data storage. Since metal coated (platinum (Pt) or Pt/iridium) silicon (Si) probes are n ...

A new scanner design for a high-speed atomic force microscope (AFM) is presented and discussed in terms of modeling and control. The lowest resonance frequency of this scanner is above 22 kHz. The X and Y scan ranges are 13 micrometers and the Z range is 4 ...
We have developed hybrid AFM probes with SU-8 polymer body and full platinum and tungsten cantilever and tip. The fabrication process uses surface micromachining of a (100) silicon wafer. The metal (platinum or tungsten) is sputter deposited in oxidation s ...
We have studied the fabrication of high-aspect ratio silicon tips by a combination of deep reactive ion etching and focused ion beam. The reactive ion etching is used to obtain so-called "rocket tips" which can be fabricated with a high aspect ratio. The r ...
Since its development in 1986, the Atomic force microscope (AFM) has become a revolutionary tool for surface analysis. AFM is of special interest to biologists because of its ability to operate in liquids. Applications include imaging molecules, cells, tis ...
We report on the fabrication of atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes using a novel technology that performs every machining step by means of one single deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) equipment. Specific etching conditions are optimized in order to define ...
