Nanomanipulation of Small Objects in a Feg-sem
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nanometric objects attract huge interest due to their new and unexpected physical and chemical properties [1], which may allow the development of new technological devices. The study of these nano-objects is seriously limited by the fact that well-established conventional tools can not be easily applied in this size range. The development of new instruments and methodologies is necessary to allow the growth of nanoscience. The high-resolution capabilities of electron microscopy techniques render it a preferred tool to observe and characterize nano-objects. However, in most cases, electron microscopy methods are static, when it is frequently very interesting to perform dynamic in situ experiments.

The interactive nanomanipulation platform is established based on fuzzy control and connected region marking CRM algorithm in SEM. The 3D virtual nanomanipulation model is developed to make up the insufficiency of the 2D SEM image information, which provides the operator with depth and real-time visual feedback information to guide the manipulation. The haptic device Omega3 is used as the maste...
متن کاملContact detection for nanomanipulation in a scanning electron microscope.
Nanomanipulation systems require accurate knowledge of the end-effector position in all three spatial coordinates, XYZ, for reliable manipulation of nanostructures. Although the images acquired by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) provide high resolution XY information, the lack of depth information in the Z-direction makes 3D nanomanipulation time-consuming. Existing approaches for contact ...
متن کاملFluorescence and SEM correlative microscopy for nanomanipulation of subcellular structures
Nanomanipulation under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) enables direct interactions of a tool with a sample. We recently developed a nanomanipulation technique for the extraction and identification of DNA contained within sub-nuclear locations of a single cell nucleus. In nanomanipulation of sub-cellular structures, a key step is to identify targets of interest through correlating fluorescenc...

In some of the archeological museum, the variety of blue object are nominated as Egyptian Blue, Lapis lazuli and Lapis lazuli paste. In this research, it was found that there are many mistake in this classification. Lapis lazuli, a brilliant azure-blue color gemstone, is a mixture of minerals, primarily containing the lazurite (blue) with small amounts of calcite, sodalite, and gold-color fleck...
متن کاملA versatile atomic force microscope for three-dimensional nanomanipulation and nanoassembly.
A conventional atomic force microscope (AFM) has been successfully applied to manipulating nanoparticles (zero-dimensional), nanowires (one-dimensional) or nanotubes (one- or two-dimensional) by widely used pushing or pulling operations on a single surface. However, pick-and-place nanomanipulation in air is still a challenge. In this research, a modified AFM, called a three-dimensional (3D) man...
