We address the growing demand in the field of micro & nanotechnology for sensors that combine high sensitivity with high force resolution and spatial resolution for surface analysis. The non-destructive electrical analysis of semiconductor devices at wafer level for failure analysis and in-line process control requires sensors with a lateral resolution in the nanometer range. The aim at Leibniz IPHT is to produce single-crystal cantilevers that improve sensitivity by around an order of magnitude.
