NuNano SCOUT 70 Silicon AFM Probe | Soft Tapping
The NuNano SCOUT 70 is an ultra soft afm probe expressly engineered for scanning highly fragile substrates. As a general purpose afm tip 70 khz model, it excels in soft tapping afm probe applications, non contact afm probe soft samples imaging, and force modulation afm probe scanning in air. It is the softest cantilever in the SCOUT series, completely preventing damage to delicate molecular structures.
Designed with a very low scout 70 2 n/m spring constant and a scout 70 70 khz resonant frequency, it features a highly flexible scout 70 rectangular cantilever 225 µm. Accompanied by a scout 70 conical tip radius 5 nm (guaranteed <10 nm), this silicon afm probe biological samples tool delivers pristine afm topography soft matter data without compromising surface integrity.
