AFM probes of this series feature three different AFM cantilevers without AFM tips on one side of the chip. They can be used in various applications such as gluing microspheres or custom tip pyramids. HQ:NSC35 and HQ:NSC36 series AFM probes feature 3 different soft tapping mode AFM cantilevers, while HQ:CSC37 and HQ:CSC38 series AFM probes feature 3 different contact mode AFM cantilevers.
