Product Description |
|
The Nano-Z500 is a long range, Z-axis nanopositioner
specifically designed to hold multiwell plates used in
biomedical research. High-throughput single cell fluorescence
microscopy and high speed, high resolution
confocal imaging can be accomplished while simultaneously
adjusting the Z-axis position to remove the effects
of multiwell plate irregularities. The Nano-Z500 has
true flexure guided motion and contains internal position sensing. Utilizing proprietary PicoQ™ technology,
the position sensors provide absolute, repeatable position
measurement for closed loop control with a resolution of
better than 1 nm over the full 500 micron travel range.
In addition to high resolution spatial imaging, the
Nano-Z500’s 15 ms step response allows entire Z-section
acquisitions with minimal photo bleaching. |
