An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Nanomanipulation of SiO2 Nanoparticles: Design, Fabricationand Feasibility
摘要: Although some recent developments in nanotechnology made the prospects of a direct mechanical manipulation of micro- or nano-objects quite realistic, there are still several concerns and difficulties that affect such an endeavor. This is probably due to the large base of knowledge that is necessary to approach the problem of handling a nano-object by means of a nano- or micro-device. Therefore, any progress in this field is possible only by means of an integrated and interdisciplinary approach, which takes into account different aspects of the phenomenon. During the actual pioneering phase, there is a certain convenience in handling nano-objects that: (a) have peculiar known characteristics; (b) are easily recognizable, and (c) are interesting to the scientific community. This paper presents the interdisciplinary activities that were necessary to set up an experiment where specifically synthesized SiO2 particles came in contact with the tips of specifically-designed and -fabricated nanomanipulators. SiO2 mesoporous nanoparticles (KCC-1), having a peculiar dendritic structure, have been selected as a suitable nano-object because of the possibility to easily modulate their morphology. The expected contact force has been also calculated by means of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) electro-mechanical simulations.

[IEEE 2018 15th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV) - Singapore, Singapore (2018.11.18-2018.11.21)] 2018 15th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV) - Detection and Compensation of Motion Error for Nanomanipulation Platform in Scanning Electron Microscope
摘要: Nanomanipulation system based on scanning electron microscope(SEM) with good real-time visual feedback and nanoscale observation resolution had high operability in a vacuum working environment. Different nanomanipulation tasks of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are carried out through the nanomanipulation system in SEM. Nanomanipulation platform existed inherent manufacture errors, installation errors and other errors, and imprecise nanomanipulation system were also time-consuming and laborious for operators. This paper presentes a method of combining the visual feedback and feedforward control to detect and compensate the motion error of the multi-dimensional SmarAct nanomanipulation platform in the nanomanipulation system in SEM. This method reduces the motion error in the X-Y direction and achieved higher operating accuracy. At the different step speed, the motion error in the X direction and Y direction is 135.7nm and 112.9nm respectively. After the feedforward compensation, the motion error in the X direction and Y direction reduces to 61.3nm and 54.1nm respectively.

Ultracompact and Unidirectional On-Chip Light Source Based on Epsilon-Near-Zero Materials in an Optical Communication Range
摘要: An on-chip light source is one of the essential components for integrated photonic circuits and quantum-information processing chips. To date, it has been a great challenge to construct an on-chip light source with high directionality, high collection efficiency, and ultrasmall feature size simultaneously in the optical communication range. Here, an on-chip light source, consisting of a circular paraboloid etched in an aluminum-doped zinc-oxide film, which is an epsilon-near-zero material, is experimentally realized at 1550 nm. Photons emitted from the a PbS quantum-dot cluster placed near the focal point of this paraboloid are reflected into a directional parallel beam due to the large impedance mismatch between aluminum-doped zinc oxide and ambient medium. An ultrasmall emission divergence angle of only ±3°, and an ultrahigh directional emission contrast ratio of 44 dB are achieved from the ultracompact device with a feature size of only 1.5 μm. Also, an ultrahigh collection efficiency of up to 92% is predicted by simulation. This work not only opens an alternative way for the realization of integrated photonic devices based on epsilon-near-zero materials, but also provides another method for the precise assembling of composite functional nanostructures.
