Abstract : "The current study developed a compact and high-speed stylus-profiling head with overall dimensions of 34.3 ¡¿ 32.5 ¡¿ 33.7 mm3. A simple linear flexure leaf spring was used as a precision guide method for the profiling head along a vertical axis and for the assembly of an infrared light-emitting diode. A position-sensitive photo-diode was used for as a simple sensing method. The static and dynamic forces, which can be controlled electronically using a vertical solenoid, were in the range of 10-2 N to 10-5 N. Displacement was in the range of 80 nm to 87.2 ¥ìm, making it adequate for the precise surface measurements of hard materials. The sensor resolution was less than 10 nm. The designed profiling head had a moving mass of 1 mg and speed within 100 Hz."
