MC90/70 for Veeco Dx

MC90_70_for_Veeco_Dx


nanotools Probe for 90 and 70 nm
Inline Depth Metrology

Ordercode: MC90-70_ArrowNCR_3

The nanotools® MC90/70 probes feature a perfectly
cylindrical tip shape providing the highest repeatability of depth and bottom width measurements (constant bottom travel distance). The nanotools® MC90/70 high aspect ratio probes with cylindrical shape are the AFM In-Line metrology solution for 90 nm and 70 nm. MC tips are tilt compensated and are available for most AFM systems.

Certified Quality

We do a 100% SEM quality check for every tip (datasheet with precise tip dimensions provided). Every tip is handled in an ESD closed circle, clean room packed and vacuum sealed for shipment.

nanotools is the first and only probe manufacturer being quality certified to DIN EN ISO 9001.

 

EBD

The high aspect ratio part of the probe is made from High density, diamond like carbon (HDC/DLC).

The tips show superior properties:

  • high aspect ratio 

  • hydrophobic surface properties

  • high stiffness / elastic modulus (8x of that of silicon)

  • low thermal mass

  • abrasion resistance

Our HDC dissipates static charge. This leads to probes offering the extreme durability of diamond together with high resolution imaging capability. Applying our patented EBD technique we ensure a stiff and rigid high aspect ratio probe of superior symmetry and nanometer precision.
