A review of nanometer resolution position sensors: Operation and performance
@article{Fleming2013ARO, title={A review of nanometer resolution position sensors: Operation and performance}, author={A. Fleming}, journal={Sensors and Actuators A-physical}, year={2013}, volume={190}, pages={106-126} }
Abstract Position sensors with nanometer resolution are a key component of many precision imaging and fabrication machines. Since the sensor characteristics can define the linearity, resolution and speed of the machine, the sensor performance is a foremost consideration. The first goal of this article is to define concise performance metrics and to provide exact and approximate expressions for error sources including non-linearity, drift and noise. The second goal is to review current position… Expand
