Abstract

The present invention provides a working method using a scanning probe which can enhance a working speed and prolong a lifetime of the probe. The present invention provides the working method using a scanning probe which works a sample by performing the relative scanning of a probe supported on a cantilever on the sample at a predetermined scanning speed. The working method can work the object to be worked while forcibly and relatively vibrating the probe in the direction orthogonal to or parallel to a working surface of the sample at low frequency of 100 to 1000 Hz.
