摘要:
A conductive probe for a scanning microscope capable of applying a voltage between a conductive nanotube serving as a probe and a specimen or a current to them. A conductive probe (20) for a scanning microscope for collecting physical properties of the surface of a specimen by means of the tip (14a) of a conductive nanotube probe (12) fixed to a cantilever (4) is characterized in that the conductive probe (20) is composed of a conductive coating (17) provided on the surface of the cantilever (4), a conductive nanotube (12) the root part (16) of which is provided in contact with the surface of the necessary portion of the cantilever (4), and a conductive deposit (18) covering from the root part (16) to a part of the conductive coating (17) and fixing the conductive nanotube (12), and the conductive nanotube (12) is electrically connected to the conductive coating (17) through the conductive deposit (18).
