Cryogenic Nanoprobes

Cryogenic nanoprobes offer nano-precision electrical probing for high-accuracy measurements. They are integrated and compatible with the Allalin nano- and cryo-stage for versatile, temperature-controlled applications involving 2 probes or less.

Closed-loop, absolute encoder controllers allow for nanometric position repeatability over the whole electron microscope field of view.

The nanoprobes are optimized for operation in the cathodoluminescence collection plane, making correlative microscopy a key feature of the tool. They are also compatible with the SE detector, minimizing SE signal loss.
