The present invention relates to a nano tip and a fabrication method of
the nano tip that is generally usable in mechanical, physical, and
electrical devices for detecting surface signals or chemical signals, or
is usable for a source scanning energy beam.The fabrication method of a
nano tip according to the present invention includes providing a
supporting holder that is fixed at one end thereof to a mechanical or
electrical device, bonding a carbon nanotube to the free end of the
supporting holder, and modifying the property or the shape of the carbon
nanotube by scanning an energy beam thereto.The nano tip, having improved
stiffness and perpendicularity, is fabricated by adjusting the length,
the diameter, and the shape of the end of the carbon nanotube tip
attached with carbon nanotubes by means of the energy beam so that the
nano tip may stably and repeatedly reproduce information of a sample and
may minimize a deviation between the tips.
