Design of a low-cost meso-scale, detachable fixturing system for probe-based nanomanufacturing equipment and instruments
… meso-scale, detachable kinematic fixturing system for use in alignment in probe-based nanomanufacturing. The fixturing system will be applied specifically to a nanopositioning system developed for the functionalization of DNA via dip pen nanolithography. A ball and groove kinematic coupling …

Application of field programmable analog arrays (FPAAs) to fast scanning probe microscopy
… Therefore AFMs are required to have very fast nanopositioning systems. However, high-bandwidth requirement on the positioning system poses fundamental limitations on the image resolution. The resolution of an image depends on the controller’s capabilities to attenuate the measurement noises. …
