Tips for Cantilever

• https://www.nanoandmore.com/
  • AC Mode (AIR):
    •  BudgetSensors Tap300: -G (uncoated), Al-G (aluminium coated), GD-G or GB-G (gold coated)
      • they are quite good standard tips (tip radius <10nm). Choose gold coated for liquid-AFM.
      • 10 pcs / ~200 €
    • Nanosensors PPP-NCx (Point Probe Plus - Non-Contact), NCH (higher frequency), NCL (lower frequency), NCR (aluminium coated), NCAuD (gold coated)
      • Slightly better in performance, but also more expensive.
      • 10 pcs / ~330 €
  • AC Mode (LIQUID):
    • BudgetSensors Multi75GD-G or Multi75GB-G (both gold coated)
      • Recommended for basic liquid-AFM using AC mode.
      • 10 pcs / ~260 €
  • Contact Mode:
    • AIR: BudgetSensors Contact-G (uncoated) or ContAl-G (aluminium coated) 10 pcs / ~200 €
    • LIQUID: BudgetSensors ContGD-G (gold coated) 10 pcs / ~260 €
    • Conductive-AFM:
      • PPP-ContPt (Nanosensors) orContPt (NanoWorld) 10 pcs / ~420-460 €
      • ElektriCont-G (BudgetSensors) 10 pcs / ~240 €
