ABSTRACT:
A device for simultaneously carrying out an electro-chemical and a topographical near field microscopy is described, which device comprises a region for topographical near field measurement and a region for electrochemical near field measurement, with the region for topographical near field measurement extending completely as far as to the immediate tip of the arrangement, characterized in that the region for electrochemical near field measurement starts at a defined distance from the immediate tip.
