Full Model Number: NPS3220-LD-LN: - **Opt -LD:** Low Drift - Drift level is 3 times lower than standard - **Opt -LN:** Low Noise - Noise level is 3 times lower than standard ### Accessories Included - NPS3220 Manual - NanoControl Panel and LabView Driver Disks - NPS-XY-100A NanoMechanism **NPS-XY-100A** The NPSXY100A is a piezo scanned flexure guided stage with integrated capacitance position sensors. It is capable of sub-nanometer resolution and reproducibility. Finite element analysis of the flexure guidance mechanisms has reduced parasitic angular motions to less than 25 micro-radians over the full 100 micron range. - 2-Axes - 100 µm x 100 µm Range - Sub-Nanometer Reproducibility - Linearity Error Less Than 0.02% - 400 mm Clear Aperture The Super Invar construction (CTE 0.3ppm K-1, c.f. Al at 23ppm K-1) minimizes thermal drift, which on a nanometer scale is very important. The unique isostatic mounting system ensures that stresses from the mounting system are properly relieved and establishes the center of the stage as the co-ordinate reference point.

Together they provide closed-loop positioning with sub-nanometer resolution over a 100 µm x 100 µm range. It is used in high-precision positioning and scanning applications, such as microscopy, metrology, and optical alignment. ## Images -
