  • Abstract
    Cantilevers made of III–V ternary compounds have been especially designed to obtain a spring constant in the classical range of 0.1 N/m. They are successfully fabricated by epitaxial growth techniques on InP substrate and wet etching. The layer structure is intended to further contribute in a microoptoelectronic device. The cantilever is afterwards provided with a carbon supertip which is expected to play simultaneously both roles of an atomic force sensor and an optical near-field converter.
