Sample

Sample environment

The I-TOMCAT endstation (ES2), about 33 m from the source: the air-bearing rotation stage, sample positioning, the continuous-rotation slip ring, and the sample-side fast shutter. The maximum field of view is about 1.5 x 1.5 mm2.

Enclosure: i-tomcat-experiment.

Note

The rotation stage binds RotaryStage; the Aerotech ABRX150 read from the public endstations page is carried as a (target) model pending procurement confirmation (STAGE-1). The positioning stack axis set is not public and is carried confirm (SAMPLE-1).
