Active load cell with positive, negative and zero stiffness operating modes for micronewton range contact force monitoring in electrical probing

Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans, Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

This article describes a novel method for applying a contact force in the range of 1 to 100 μN with pointed probe on a microscale sample in order to perform ohmic electrical measurements. The solution is based on the new TIVOT active load cell combining th ...

A load cell with adjustable stiffness and zero offset tuning dedicated to electrical micro- and nanoprobing

Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Loïc Benoît Tissot-Daguette, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

The tasks of electrical micro- and nanoprobing require precision that goes beyond human perception and therefore, depend on sensors providing real-time feedback. Efforts towards automation in micro- and nanoprobing and emerging areas such as branched nanow ...

Design of a compliant load cell with adjustable stiffness

Charles Baur, Lennart Rubbert, Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

Manipulation at the sub-micron scale often requires force-sensing capabilities of milli-to nanonewton forces. This article presents a novel design of a compliant load cell with mechanically adjustable stiffness. The system enables adapting force sensitivit ...
