Image-Guided Nanopositioning Scheme for SEM [PDF]
Positioning of micro-nanoobjects inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM) for manipulation is a key and challenging task to perform. Often it is performed by skilled operators via teleoperation, which is tedious and lacks repeatability. In this paper, rendering this task as an image-guided problem, we present a frequency domain scheme for automatic ...
