A zinc oxide (ZnO) whisker crystal has been examined as a probing tip for scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Atomic resolution images of the surfaces of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and Si(111)-7×7 structures are successfully observed by STM using a ZnO whisker tip, demonstrating that the ZnO whisker crystal is applicable to a STM tip.
