Handling and Cleaning
Although the IZI
Probe is far more robust than other probes, careful handling is required.
• Do not touch the probe tips. Dirty or damaged tips will result in compomised performance.
• Do not use liquid or unglazed ceramic, or an ultrasonic cleaner to clean the probes. A rough ceramic surface will
shorten the life of the tip.
To clean the probe tips, Probe Polish™ (P/N K25-39045) is recommended. This is a sticky pad which does not contain
liquids, fibers or solvents. Place the Probe Polish pad on the chuck (for example, on the auxiliary substrate area) and touch
the probe tips to the pad surface several times using 100 to 200
μ
m overtravel to safely remove any unwanted substances.
The probes can be pulled backwards over the pad like a garden rake, but never move them in a forward direction.
If you have any further questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact a Cascade Microtech representative.
Worst case: touch down before pad, overtravel = 100
