The tip flexibility makes them resistant to damage from tip crashes. The slenderness of the tips enables imaging of sharp recesses in surface topography. Thus, deep trenches that are inaccessible to high-resolution scanning probes, become accessible with the narrow tips. Electrical conductivity of the multiwalled nanotubes permit them to be used for scanning tunnelling microscopy. author: Dai, Hongjie, Hafner, Jason H., Smalley, Richard E., Colbert, Daniel T., Rinzler, Andrew G.
