Abstract

After the invention of atomic force microscopy (AFM), micromachining tech-nology was soon introduced into the fabrication of AFM probes [1]. Well-defined probes with sharp tips, soft spring, and high resonant frequency were produced in a batch process for commercialization. In addition, using Si mi-cromachining which is compatible with Si integrated circuits, electronic func-tions for sensing and regulating the force acting on the tip have been installed in the micromachined AFM probe [2].

A voltage was applied between the tip and the substrate. Due to a high electric field, Cr atoms around the tip were evaporated leaving an aperture.
