AFM and STM are highly sensitive, which means they can pick up vibrations below a nanometer as noise. For measurements where such vibrations are problematic, an active vibration isolation table is necessary. The "IsoStage300" detects vibrations transmitted to the device using piezo sensors and drives the top plate with actuators in six degrees of freedom (three axes) to cancel out the movements and provide vibration control. It can reduce low-frequency vibrations starting from 1 Hz, canceling 93% (23 dB) at 5 Hz and 99.0% (40 dB) at 15 Hz. Additionally, it effectively reduces noise in low-frequency bands, which is difficult to achieve with passive vibration isolation tables. 【Features】 ■ Highest level of vibration isolation performance ■ Spike-Guard function enhances measurement efficiency and quality ■ Compatible with compact products from NanoSurf (Can be used with other manufacturers' AFMs if they are of suitable size and weight) *For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.
