Magnetic force microscopy using fabricated cobalt-coated carbon nanotubes probes
Magnetic force microscope ( MFM ) is a powerful technique for mapping the magnetic force gradient above the sample surface. Herein, single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were used to fabricate MFM probe by dielectrophoresis method which is a reproducible and cost-effective technique. The effect of induced voltage on the deposition manner of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on the atomic force microscope (...
متن کاملSolution Based Methods for the Fabrication of Carbon Nanotube Modified Atomic Force Microscopy Probes
High aspect ratio carbon nanotubes are ideal candidates to improve the resolution and lifetime of atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes. Here, we present simple methods for the preparation of carbon nanotube modified AFM probes utilising solvent evaporation or dielectrophoresis. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the modified probes shows that the carbon nanotubes attach to the probe apex as ...

متن کاملCarbon Nanotube AFM Probe Technology
The invention of atomic force microscopy (AFM) is having a great impact on various areas, such as nano metrology, materials science, surface science and biology (Binnig et al., 1986). The lateral resolution of AFM is mainly determined by the probe’s shape and physical property, especially the geometry and dimension of the probe end. Conventional AFM probe is pyramidal shape by micro-fabrication...
