The diffusion controlled response of conical AFM-SECM probes is presented. Accurate expressions are given which describe the dependence of the probe current on the tip radius and aspect ratio, insulating sheath radius and tip-substrate distance for positive feedback and hindered diffusion. A procedure is proposed to determine the tip dimensions from the experimental approach curves. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
