Product Description |
The Nano-MTA Series are single axis and two axis piezoelectric
mirror tip/tilt actuators. With nanoradian resolution,
the Nano-MTA Series is ideal for applications
involving laser beam steering, tracking, and scanning.
Internal position sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ® technology
provide absolute, repeatable position measurement
under closed loop control. The Nano-MTA Series is compatible
with either the Nano-Drive® or Nano-Drive®85
controllers. Both controllers include sensor electronics,
proportional integral feedback control, and 150V amplifiers.
When used with the high power Nano-Drive®85
controller, the Nano-MTA Series is capable of continuous,
high speed scans at 400 Hz and step response times
down to 2 milliseconds.
