Toepassingen

Closed-loop rasterscannen

Capacitieve terugkoppeling lineariseert de scan en verwijdert de hysterese die open-loop beelden vervormt.

Scanning-probemicroscopie

Levert de fijne XY- of XYZ-scan onder een AFM-, STM- of nabijveldkop.

Confocale en Raman-mapping

Stapt een monster reproduceerbaar door de focus, zodat mappixels met echte coördinaten overeenkomen.

Specifying this part

What this model has to survive, and what it needs around it

Closed-loop travel is shorter than open-loop travel

The loop reserves headroom to correct within, so the usable range drops when the sensor is engaged: an S100.XY.C covers 120 × 120 µm open-loop against 100 × 100 µm closed-loop, and an S200 covers 240 × 240 against 200 × 200. Specify against the closed-loop number.

Flexure guiding, capacitive sensing

A piezo stack acting through flexure hinges with a capacitive sensor reading directly against the moving surface — no sliding contact, no backlash, and millisecond-class response.

Vacuum and non-magnetic versions

Most of the range is orderable as .HV (high vacuum), .UHV (ultra-high vacuum) or .NM (non-magnetic). The suffix changes materials, cabling and bake compatibility rather than the mechanics, so specify it against the chamber the stage will live in.
