Diamond-coated cantilevers have been used for scanning capacitance microscopy (SCM) as an alternative for metal-coated cantilevers in order to improve the stability of probes. It is shown that the diamond-coated probes produce adequate intensity of dC signal and high contrast for both p-type and n-type silicon samples and also provide superior endurance characteristics to metal-coated probes. Due to the robustness of the diamond-coated probes, we are able to evaluate the reproducibility of measurements and the homogeneity of the ultrathin oxide for both dry oxidation (heated up to 300degreesC in air under ultraviolet illumination) and wet oxidation (immersed into a hydrogen peroxide solution at 70degreesC). The dry oxidation shows better reproducibility, while the wet oxidation shows better homogeneity. Finally, comparison of SCM with secondary ion mass spectrometry measurement shows that diamond-coated probes can be used at least for one-dimensional quantitative SCM measurements without any significant effect of depletion in the diamond-coated tip itself.
