MICROPROBE, METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND INFORMATION RECEIVING AND PROVIDING APPARATUS UTILIZING THE SAME

摘要

A probe for receiving and providing an information with an object is disclosed. The probe has a supporting member and a rod-shaped projection of which the end is positioned opposed to the object. The rod-shaped projection protrudes from a partial area of the supporting member. The information receiving and providing with the object is effected at the longitudinal end of the probe. The probe provides precise and accurate output and/or input of information regardless of the surface state of the object.
