The new sQube® colloidal probe combines the well-known features of the proven NANOSENSORS™ NCH series such as high application versatility and compatibility with most commercial SPMs with a reproducible sphere radius instead of a sharp tip. The excellent  radius and the minimized variation of diameter provide reproducible signals.

NCH AFM probes are designed for non-contact mode or tapping mode AFM (also known as: attractive or dynamic mode).

The so called "Colloidal Probe Technique", where single colloids are attached to AFM cantilevers for force measurements, opens the chance for a better understanding of fundamental interactions in a variety of fields.

Examples are adhesion phenomena, particle-surface-interactions, mechanical properties, suspensions, hydrodynamics and boundary slip - to name just some out of an increasing number of applications.

It is compatible with:
