| Deep Trench Probes |
Nanonics uses a patented unique technology to create cantilevered fiber probes that enables Deep Trench imaging. For example, a cantilevered AFM tip can be specially designed to probe inside a trench that is 1.5 mm deep and only 100µm wide.
In addition, Nanonics probes for other types of imaging, such as NSOM and electrical/thermal, can be designed as deep trench probes, giving these imaging modalities access to a wide range of surface topographies. |

Tips with high aspect ratios can easily be manufactured using glass pulling techniques. AFM tips (including Deep Trench Probes) with aspect ratios up to 10:1 are available. These probes have tip angles of 6°.
