The NPS-XYZ-100A/15H adds an integrated Z axis stage to the NPS-XY-100A whilst maintaining the 10mm clear aperture. The entire system is constructed from Super Invar. This arrangement offers over 120 microns of travel in x and y with over 16 microns travel in the z axis.

The flexible modularity of the Queensgate NanoMechanisms result in a number of possible XYZ combinations, each with specific features that make then suitable for different types of high resolution microscopy. Each of the products has Ultra-low parasitic rotations and out of plane motion, superb repeatability and simple image calibration.

The NPS-XYZ-100A/15H adds an integrated Z axis stage to the NPS-XY-100A whilst maintaining the 10mm clear aperture. The entire system is constructed from Super Invar. This arrangement offers over 120 microns of travel in x and y with over 16 microns travel in the z axis.

It has been specifically designed to deliver an optical taper right into the focal plane of the sample under test and provides a sophisticated and easy to implement solution for new and existing NSOM users.

Coupled with a range of interfacing options to our closed loop digital controller, this system provides a sophisticated and easy to implement solution for high resolution optical microscopy.

The NPS-XYZ-100A/15H is made up from the NPS-XY-100A, NPS-Z-15H and interface bracket.
