A probe tip configuration, being part of a probe (FIG. 2) for use in a scanning proximity microscope, is disclosed, comprising a cantilever beam (1) and a probe tip. Said tip comprises a first portion of a tip (2) and at least one second portion of a tip (5). Said first portion of a tip is connected to said cantilever beam whereas said second portion of a tip is placed on said first portion of a tip. Cantilever beam, first portion of a tip and second portion(s) of a tip can be composed of different materials and can be isolated each from another which makes an easy adjustment of the maximum penetration depth of the tip possible without limiting the resolution and makes it also possible to detect more than one signal of a sample at the same time using one cantilever beam. Methods of making the probe tip configuration are further described.
