STM Vibration Control
Remove Vibration Noise from Your STM Today
For over 25 years, Herzan has been helping scanning tunneling microscope (STM) users achieve more from their research by removing disruptive vibration noise from affecting their STM. Vibration noise can cause distortions to occur in the imaging, making understanding the data collected less precise. Learn more about our proven strategies and solutions by reviewing a case study highlighting the benefits of active vibration control on surface analysis techniques for STMs.

“(W)e first tried air legs, but these actually increased our problems with vibrational noise. I believe the reason for this is that the air legs gave the system additional freedom to move and so vibrations from stainless steel gas tube lines more effectively coupled in to our system, resulting in increased, rather and decreased noise. I will also be reporting back to my service contact at Omicron with the success of the active vibration isolation.”

IVF + TS Series
Fertility Research Associates needed an isolation system to reduce the environmental vibrations affecting their intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) process. They chose the TS system based on the recommendation of a colleague who had previous experience. The TS immediately
The Zewail Group operating a Quanta FEG 650 interfaced with a custom optical set-up to enable ultrafast electron microscopy imaging. Feeding laser into SEM chamber requires positional stability within a few micrometers, so SEM internal air isolation was not in use.
A consortium of researchers aimed to understand binocular encoding within the Damselfly Pre-motor Target Tracking Systems. Paloma Bellido of the University of Minnesota worked with Herzan to remove vibration noise from the electrophysiology testing setup created. Ultimately, the testing setup helped record intracellularly from neurons in damselflies.
Researchers at Boston University were in search of isolating mechanical noise from a custom metrology platform consisting of a MEMs accelerometer, which was re-purposed to perform a sensitive, room temperature measurement of the Casimir force.
