Abstract
A probe head may be utilized to test an electronic device. The probe head may include a probe axis extending along a length of the probe head. The probe head may include a probe core including a first metal. The probe core may include a core surface having a first dimension. The first dimension may be perpendicular to the probe axis. The probe core may include a probe tip, for instance extending from the core surface along the probe axis. The probe tip has a second dimension that may be perpendicular to the probe axis. The second dimension may be less than the first dimension of the core surface. The probe head may include a cladding layer that includes a second metal. The cladding layer may be coupled around a perimeter of the probe core. The probe tip may extend beyond the cladding layer.
