Abstract :
In this paper, we nano-engineered commercial atomic force microscope (AFM) probes with multi nano tip structures for high speed/resolution dynamic nanodetection. The tip radius could be shrunk down to 2.5 nm, and the time resolution could be approaching 10 ms for measuring particle movement. The multi tip AFM can be applicable for detecting the dynamic movement of bio-molecules in situ.
