Large-area scanning for high-speed AFM: latest developments announced<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

20.11.24<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queensgate and NPL revealed their latest breakthrough at Euspen's Special Interest Conference: Precision Motion Systems and Control <\/strong>in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development is a novel control system for a two-axis flexure stage with a 100 µm x 100 µm scanning range that enables high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) over large areas. The result is an HS-AFM system capable of imaging large areas with molecular-level resolution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact Queensgate to find out more. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This development was enabled following the fourth project that Queensgate and NPL have collaborated on as part of Innovate UK's Analysis for Innovation (A4I) program<\/a>. The aim is to qualify the implementation of arbitrary 2D scan paths using either contoured or position-velocity-time (PVT) motion trajectories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previous collaborations have already pushed the boundaries of what is possible in the field of nanopositioning such as improved velocity control and multi-axis correction – all of which produce tangible benefits for users or developers of nanopositioning systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\r\n

“Our collaboration with Queensgate has yielded reciprocal benefits over a wide range of joint R&D projects for the past decade or so.” 
\r\nAndrew Yacoot Principal Research Scientist National Physical Laboratory<\/em><\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Previous projects between Queensgate and NPL:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Closed-loop velocity control for fast imaging techniques<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Velocity control capitalizes on the ability to operate the stage at higher speeds than previously possible. This enables HS-AFM use with larger, heavier samples than previously. This was an NPL Measurement for Recovery project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spatial positioning correction for multi-axis nanopositioning stages<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Queensgate has developed high-performance open frame multi-axis flexure stages capable of operation in closed-loop over extended ranges (400 μm-800 μm) in X, Y, and Z axes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developing a mathematical model for multi-axis control<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NPL worked with Queensgate's engineers to develop an algorithm to enhance the precision of its nanopositioning stages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
