Abstract:We demonstrate the procedure of Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) conductive probe fabrication with a single multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) on a silicon cantilever pyramid. The nanotube bundle reliably attached to the metal-covered pyramid is formed using electrophoresis technique from the MWNT suspension. It's shown that the dimpled aluminium sample can be used both for shortening/modification of the nanotube bundle by applying pulse voltage between the probe and the sample, and for controlling the probe s… Show more
