Product Description |
|
The Nano-View/M™ is a fully integrated positioning
system for use with inverted optical microscopes. Easy
to operate and affordable, the Nano-View/M™ combines
a manual micrometer driven, two axis, linear motion
stage with high resolution, long range nanopositioners
- either ultra-low profile or ultra-high speed. A stable
blocking force of 10 N built into each axis of the coarse
positioning stage provides a secure base for precision
nanopositioning. The nanopositioning systems built into
the Nano-View/M™ have the lowest profiles available and
provide sub-nanometer resolution under closed loop control. The overall height of the Nano-View/M™ with the low
profile nanopositioners is only slightly more than standard
manual XY stages. An optional breadboard assembly with
threaded mounting holes (1/4-20 on a 1 inch pattern or
M6 on a 25mm pattern) is a convenient mounting surface
for probes. Nanopositioner ranges of motion extend up
to 200 microns per axis (X,Y and Z). Internal position
sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ™ technology provide
absolute, repeatable position measurement. The Nano-
View/M™ system includes the Nano-Drive™ controller
and is compatible with user written LabVIEW software. |
