High resolution long lifetime magnetic probes MFM10 series
MFM10/15 (15 separated chips), 560,00 €
MFM10/50 (50 separated chips), 1590,00 €
The choice of the proper probe is very important during magnetic measurements. The magnetic probe should provide high resolution images with good magnetic signal. Besides it should “survive” under high-humidity conditions.
High resolution long lifetime magnetic probes MFM01 and MFM10. Special protective layers help to avoid oxidation and increase the cantilever lifetime substantially. Sharp silicon tip with coating less than 35 nm allows obtaining lateral magnetic resolution till 20-30 nm!

Curvature radius is about 30nm.
Survival test – 30 days in high*humidity conditions!
*close to 100% without water condensation
