Mad City Labs recently expanded its line of nanopositioning systems for metrology applications with several high speed, high stability, low position noise, picometer precision products.
The Nano-HS3M (shown above) is a high speed, XYZ precision nanopositioning system with picometer positioning resolution. Other new products in the line include the Nano-METZ, a compact z-axis nanopositioning system designed for high speed scanning and ultra-low noise characteristics for demanding AFM and metrology applications; the Nano-MET2 and Nano-MET3, ultra-low noise, high precision nanopositioning systems with picometer positioning resolution; and the Nano-MET10 and Nano-MET20, compact, single axis nanopositioning systems with exceptional resonant frequency and low noise characteristics.
The Nano-METZ is a compact z-axis nanopositioning system designed for high speed scanning and ultra-low noise characteristics for demanding AFM and metrology applications. The innovative design of the Nano- METZ coupled with our proprietary PicoQ® sensor technology yields a resonant frequency of 14.5kHz and a noise floor of 400 femtometers/?Hz. The result: unparalled speed, response and precision for the most demanding and discerning metrology applications.
The Nano-MET2 and Nano-MET3 are ultra-low noise, high precision nanopositioning systems with picometer positioning resolution. Internal position sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ® technology provide absolute, repeatable position measurement under closed loop control. The ultra-low position noise (4 picometers/?Hz in XY and 400 femtometers/?Hz in Z) of these nanopositioning systems make them ideal for demanding metrology applications. With a resonant frequency of 13.5kHz, the z-axis of the Nano-MET3 offers ultra-fast response needed for demanding AFM applications.
The Nano-MET10 and Nano-MET20 are compact, single axis nanopositioning systems with exceptional resonant frequency and low noise characteristics. The Nano-MET10 and Nano-MET20 have picometer positioning resolution. Internal position sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ® technology provide absolute, repeatable position measurement under closed loop control.
The low noise characteristics and high resonant frequencies make the Nano-MET10 and Nano-MET20 ideal for demanding metrology applications that require noise floors less than 10 picometers and high speed performance.
The Nano-HS3M is a high speed, XYZ precision nanopositioning system with picometer positioning resolution. Offering maximum versatility, the Nano- HS3M is designed for demanding metrology applications. Internal position sensors utilizing proprietary PicoQ®technology provide absolute, repeatable position measurement under closed loop control. The compact footprint, ultra-low noise characteristics, and a Z-axis resonant frequency of 13.5kHz make it ideal for metrology applications that require picometer noise floors and high speed performance.
