The fabrication of improved probe materials involves several advanced techniques:
Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): This method is widely used for growing high-quality graphene and carbon nanotubes. Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD): PVD techniques like sputtering are used to deposit thin films of materials like diamond-like carbon. Lithography: Advanced lithography techniques enable the precise patterning and shaping of probe materials at the nanoscale. Electrochemical Deposition: This technique is used to fabricate metallic nanowires with controlled dimensions and properties.
