Experts in high speed, high precision applications Leaders in nanopositioning Enhanced control technology Queensgate has been a premier supplier of high precision nanopositioning products for over 40 years. The company was founded in 1979 from the groundbreaking research at Imperial College in London and quite literally "wrote the book" on nanopositioning. The Nano Positioning Book by Thomas Hicks and Paul Atherton defined the stringent use of "precision" and "accuracy." These definitions are still upheld today as the only way to precisely describe nanopositioning systems' performance. Digital...

Queensgate closed-loop velocity control enables faster AFM scanning, capturing high-quality (high resolution) imagery at raster speeds of up to 4 mm/s over larger scan areas. Scan areas of 100x100 µm to 600 x600 µm can accommodate larger samples and payloads. In addition the linearity of the position data allows high quality images to be captured without requiring complex post processing techniques to remove piezo distortion or stitching effects. with shorter range stages, cutting scanning times significantly. Long ranges and fast scanning times are beneficial for multiphoton microscopy techiques...
