Gold Cone ProbesTwo examples of final gold cone probes, with overviews over the probe structures (a,c) and high magnification secondary electron images of the gold cone tips (b, d); viewing angle 90 degrees. By the end of the Ar ion etching step, the surrounding Cr and Au layers on the plateau are fully removed. The cones are electrically isolated from the residual metal layer on the side-walls of the cantilever pyramid.
