Kleindiek Nanotechnik will be giving two presentations at Microscience 2010 on 29 June to describe its instrumentation for micro- and nano-positioning and measurements, its partner Agar has announced.
With miniaturisation in semiconductor technology, optics, micro-mechanics, medicine, gene and biotechnology, highly precise positioning techniques are becoming increasingly important, the company said.
Kleindiek provides complete solutions for each market segment, whether in research or industry.
Dr Stephan Kleindiek will discuss in situ force measurement over nine orders of magnitude.
Piezo resistive cantilevers are used in combination with precise manipulators, with resolutions of 0.25nm, and the measurement of forces as low as 1nN is possible.
Dr Andrew Smith will talk about versatile solutions for TEM sample preparation, manipulation at the micro and nano scales and electrical probing in situ.
The techniques deliver high sample throughput by employing dedicated tools in the form of small, load-lockable platforms that hold all necessary components for the application.
Kleindiek and Smith will also be available on the Agar Scientific stand to talk with microscopists about their applications and answer questions on how Kleindiek Nanotechnik may deliver solutions through standard or custom products.
