A cantilever assembly () comprises a cantilever () having a cantilever tip (). The cantilever is mounted to a rigid support () and is provided on its back side with an area () of a high reflectance material having a boundary () sloping towards the support (). The extensions (c, &#x394;c) of the area () and of the boundary () towards the support fulfil the condition c/&#x394;c&#x2267;1 wherein c denotes the extension of the area () of the high reflectance material in the direction towards the support (), and &#x394;c denotes the extension of the sloped boundary () of the area () of the high reflectance material in the direction towards the support ().
