Abstract:
A cantilever has a probe portion and a cantilever portion having a free end portion from which the probe portion extends. A displacement detecting portion detects a displacement of the cantilever portion according to an interaction between a sample and the probe portion. An electrode portion is connected to the displacement detecting portion. An insulation film is formed over at least one of the electrode portion and the displacement detecting portion. A functional coating in the form one of a conductive film, a magnetic film, and a film having a light intensity amplifying effect is disposed on the insulation film.
