Experiment
Force sensing and control at nanoscale is employed using a NMC.
Piezoresistive NMC is using in this experiment.
Aim is to acquire the force trajectory at the NMC’s tip.
Mathematical modeling and controller design.
Mathematical modeling
Nanostage can be modelled as a mass spring damper system.
Applications
Measure forces at nanoscale.
Predict the change of spring constant caused by surface stress.
Measure DNA hybridization.
Study of adsorption of lipoprotein,antigen-antibody binding.
Advantages
Sensing basedd on NMC is simple,inexpensive and accurate.
Instead of bulky laser beam piezoresistive layer is used for sensing.
Extreme precision.
Conclusion
Developed a real time implementation of robust nonlinear control frame work for piezoresistive NMC based force tracking.
Utilizing MRC PE controller could result in smoother control when compared to commercially avaliable PID controllers.
It significantly enhance the imaging resolution and manipulation accuracy.
