abstract |
In this paper a new method of fabricating cylindrical resin microcantilevers using
the Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM) technique of Micro-stereolithography (MSL)
is described. The method is rapid and commercially viable, allowing the fabrication
of atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers which exhibit much larger spring constants
than those currently commercial available. This allows for experimentation in a force
regime orders of magnitude higher than currently possible using the AFM. This makes
these cantilevers ideally suited for AFM-based depth sensing indentation. Due to their
geometry, the assumptions used in the standard Euler-Bernoulli beam theory usually
used to analyse AFM cantilevers may no longer be valid. Therefore approximate analytical
solutions based on Timoshenko beam theory have been derived for the stiffness and
resonant frequency of these cantilevers. Prototypes of the cantilevers have been fabricated
and tested. Results show good agreement between experiment and theory. |
