LT3
The LT 3 is a 3-axis ultra-low profile nanopositioner primarily designed to be integrated in any kind of inverted microscope. This piezostage can be combined with a coarse positioning Microstage (See our Hybrid System).
The standard LT3 is made in aluminium but for Bruker AFM upgrade, the LT3.100 (100µm version) is available in Invar, which allows higher thermal stability.
