Correct tuning of feedback gains is important for AFMs to cope with uncertainties of the system dynamics coming from a large range of different samples, cantilevers and scan parameters. For state of the art AFMs gains have to be adjusted manually by the operator. The typical o ...
Fast steering mirrors (FMSs) are used in various applications like optical scanning of surfaces, feature detection or beam steering for optical communication systems. This paper introduces Lissajous scan trajectories to improve the tracking performance of a commercial FSM scan ...
Robust feedback control with large parameter uncertainties in a high precision stage with large sample mass variation is presented. Instead of expressing the nominal plant and its uncertainty by parametric models, they are expressed using the identified frequency response data ...
Measuring properties at the nanometre scale such as topography, morphology and roughness within a production line becomes increasingly important for quality control and process monitoring tasks. In a production line, ground vibrations are transmitted to the sample and the insp ...
