NPS-Z-15A

Overview

The NPS-Z-15A is a piezo-scanned flexure guided stage with integrated capacitance position sensors. It features a front reference surface to allow integration with the NPS-XY-100A providing three axis positioning control*.

It is capable of sub-nanometer resolution and reproducibility. This stage has been designed to have extremely low angular deviation from the axis of travel; it is ideal for use in scanning probe microscope tips and other applications where sideways motion is not tolerable.
