Nano Measurement In The Third Dimension
From the motion sensor to the computer chip, in many products of daily life components are used whose functioning is based on smallest structures of the size of thousandths -- or even millionths -- of millimeters. These micro and nano structures must be manufactured and assembled with the highest precision so that in the end, the overall system will function smoothly. Scientists have now developed a metrological scanning probe microscope into a micro and nano coordinate measuring instrument. This now allows dimensional quantities with nanometer resolution also to be measured on three-dimensional objects in an extraordinarily large measurement range of 25 mm x 25 mm x 5 mm.
