Akiyama probes

AFM probes based on quartz fork connected to micro-machined cantilever. Big advantage of these probes is a combination of highly stable fork oscilation and advantegous force constant of the quartz cantilever in one probe..

• Shape: visible
• Height: 28 um
• Diameter: < 15 nm

Cantilver parameters:

• Force constant: 5 N/m
• Resonance frequency: 50 kHz
• Thickness: 3,7 um
