Cantilevers of the 17 series with the low spring constant are used in contact mode AFM mostly. It is possible to adjust the scanning parameters to minimize the tip-sample force. Imaging in tapping mode gives the true topography of the soft samples.
Scans and application notes »
Lateral resolution below 1 nm. For scanning small areas below 250 nm at 512 points.
