. Besides a high data density, a high data rate is an important requirement for a mass storage device. To overcome the problem of the low relative velocity between tip and sample for all commercial scanning probe microscopy (SPM) devices, we have developed a high speed SCM prototype which has the potential to reach data rates of Mbit/s.
