Patented Technology
Electron beam induced processing

With more than 20 years of experience in developing and producing SPM tips by means of our patented electron beam induced processing (EBIP), we are able to control up to 50 fabrication parameters in order to achieve the highest dimensional and angular accuracies on the nanometer scale:

• tip length accuracy better than ± 10% of the nominal tip length
• tip shape accuracy better than ± 2 nm
• tip apex sharpness down to < 2 nm
• tip orientation accuracy better than ± 0.5°

Our EBIP approach opens up unique opportunities in terms of customizability and scalability at consistently high standards of quality and reliability — according to our quality management system certified according to ISO 9001.
