Cantilever & tip details
- Tilted tip design Compensates for the AFM head mounting angle, ensuring accurate data on diverse sample surfaces.
- Tip height 30 µm Enables imaging of deeper or difficult-to-access sample regions.
- Tip side angle 22° Minimizes tip-sample convolution for more accurate morphological measurements.
- Tip apex radius 7 nm Provides reliable resolution for advanced AFM applications.
