Traditionally, point-scanning confocal microscopes have used galvanometric (galvo) mirrors to generate high-contrast images of a variety of samples. While highly effective for routine imaging, this ...

Featuring the high precision of a galvanometer and the compact size and reliability of a resonant scanner, a rotational voice coil motor stage uses a flexure bearing to create rotational translation.

A compact galvanometer laser scanner developed by Fraunhofer ILT has been designed to suit new applications in 3D printing, micromachining or medical technology. The scanner occupies only 50 cubic ...
