Super Sharp

The highest electrical resolution on the market

Super Sharp diamond probes are capable of atomic resolution topographical and electrical imaging straight out of the box. These tips offer the highest electrical resolution on the market. By using wear-resistant sharp diamond probes the tip-sample contact size is well characterized and stays constant during mechanical and electrical measurements leading to more reliable data.

  • Highly doped with boron with a macroscopic resistivity of 0.003 - 0.005 Ohm∙cm.

  • Typical contact resistance of 10 kΩ depending on contact radius (measured on a silver surface).

  • Gold reflex coating on the detector side of the cantilever to enhance reflectivity.
