With the recent introduction of controlled 3D nano-printing via focused electron beam induced deposition, an entirely new range of applications such as nano-optics, -mechanics, or -electronics comes within reach whose fabrication is extremely challenging or even impossible with alternative techniques. In this contribution, we focus on mechanical properties of freestanding, Pt based 3D nano-architectures for atomic force microscopy (AFM) based application as high-resolution thermal nano-probes. A combined approach of finite element simulation, AFM based force spectroscopy and real-time imaging via scanning electron microscopy is used to identify and compensate highly unwanted peculiarities. In more detail, we discuss an unexpectedly strong influence of non-straight side branches as well as the consequences of fabrication mismatches on the lowest nanoscale, leading to non-linear mechanical behaviour and morphological twisting, respectively. The combined outcome of our findings demonstrate the high demands on nanoscale accuracy during 3D nano-printing to exploit the full potential in terms of predictable mechanical properties.
