Abstract:
Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS) is an advanced analytical measurement technology combining Raman spectroscopy with Scanning Probe Microscopy, which can detect the molecular structure and chemical composition in micro-nano-scale. As an indispensable part, the micromotion system directly determines TERS spatial resolution. The existing multi-axis system is often composed of several single-axis nonlinear systems, which solves whole problems with a superposition idea of single-axis part. But the multi-axis crosstalk under an overall idea is not fully considered and will cause system uncooperative and even oscillational. Therefore, a multi-axis micromotion system in TERS and its correction method are proposed. The improved Duhem model, simple calculation without inversion, accurate matching and fast response, has been built for nonlinearity. And the feedforward decoupling method is designed for crosstalk, having a favorable multi-axis coordination, good error tracking and simplified controllers. Experimental results show that it can greatly correct the nonlinearity and crosstalk of multi-axis system simultaneously.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
