Product Description |
Like the popular Nano-Bio Series, the new Nano-BioS
Series are ultra low profile, two axis piezo nanopositioning systems
designed to be easily integrated into existing inverted
microscopes, AFM’s and other instrumentation where
space is limited. The large, rectangular center aperture allows
the Nano-BioS to hold re-entrant sample holders for
standard 3 inch slides and other similar sized biological
samples such as Lab-Tek chamber slides. The Nano-BioS
Series stages include internal position sensors with proprietary
PicoQ® technology to provide absolute, repeatable
position measurement and picometer resolution under
closed loop feedback control. The Nano-BioS stages are
constructed from anodized aluminum and are offered in
three ranges of motion: 100μm, 200μm, and 300μm. If
motion in all three axes is needed, the Nano-LPS Series
is a similar sized microscopy stage which is also able to
move in the Z-axis for focusing operations. See the Nano-LPS Series for a low profile, 3-axis piezo nanopositioning system.
See the accessories page for Nano-BioS Series compatible accessories.
