  • Abstract
    A monocrystalline silicon lever with an integrated silicon tip for a Force/Fiction Microscope was realized. Theoretical studies have been carried out to find the shape and dimensioning according to the mechanical system requirements. Moreover, sharp tips with a high aspect ratio could be demonstrated.
