Nanorobotic systems for nanomanipulation and nanopositioning
نویسنده
چکیده
Nanorobotics is currently a much studied field by the international scientific world. Numerous applications of nanorobotics make it to expand in several areas. This occurs through the integration of several disciplines, including nanofabrication processes used to produce nanorobots, nanoactuators, nano-sensors and nanometer scale physical modeling. Some of the most important applications of nanorobotics are nanopositioning and nanomanipulation. These, in turn, find many other applications to produce different MEMS/NEMS systems, in materials science, biomedical sciences, engineering sciences, etc. Taking into account the importance of this field, we wrote this review in order to present a part of actual nanorobotic systems technology.

We report nanomanipulation and nanoassembly of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) through nanorobotic manipulation inside electron microscopes. A hybrid nanorobotic manipulation system, which is integrated with a nanorobotic manipulator inside a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and nanorobotic manipulators inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM), is used. The elasticity of a multiwalled CNT (MWN...
متن کاملCharacterizing piezoscanner hysteresis and creep using optical levers and a reference nanopositioning stage.
A method using atomic force microscope (AFM) optical levers and a reference nanopositioning stage has been developed to characterize piezoscanner hysteresis and creep. The piezoscanner is fixed on a closed-loop nanopositioning stage, both of which have the same arrangement on each axis of the three spatial directions inside the AFM-based nanomanipulation system. In order to achieve characteriza...
