Abstract

The technology of 3DTIPs focuses on developing 3D printed polymer-based Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) probes, for exploring the potential to next generation AFM probes. Here, we build on our previous work and develop advanced 3DTIPs for applications involving high resolution imaging and sensitive biological force measurements. We show that, refining the tip end of the 3DTIPs by focused ion beam (FIB) milling, by carbon nanotube (CNT) inclusion, and by reactive ion etching (RIE) substantially extends their precision and functionality. Our findings reveal that the multifunctional capabilities of the advanced 3DTIPs are well suited for various AFM applications.
