Hands-on workshops in California, December 2011
miBots are coming to the US! Visit them up-close and in person in our hands-on workshops, being held in California at a variety of locations the week of December 5th through 9th.
Discover the miBot
miBots are more than nanomanipulators. Unlike conventional systems, they are untethered and can move independently. They work individually or in groups of up to 4, and can be fitted with a variety of tools such as grippers, probes, and optical fibers so that, in addition to manipulating the sample, they can illuminate a nano workspace and conduct force or electrical measurements. Their proprietary monolithic structure makes them robust, mechanically and thermally stable, vacuum-ready, and less sensitive to vibration. Learn more about the miBot nanomanipulators
Live demonstrations
The workshops will include a brief presentation to introduce you to the new miBots as well as live demonstrations on SEMs and/or light microscopes. When you register, let us know if you will be bringing your own samples. We’ll make every effort to show you how miBots can help you with your work.
