Abstract:
In one general embodiment, an apparatus for moving a sample a precise distance in an imaging device includes a base, and a movable portion positioned above the base and configured to move relative to the base. An extent of motion of the movable portion is constrained by stops. The extent of motion is within 10 nm of a predefined distance of greater than 1 mm. Additional apparatuses and methods are also presented.

Claim (Index 19):
A method for measuring a distance between features of a sample, the method comprising:\n positioning a sample on a movable portion of an apparatus; generating a first image of a first feature of the sample using an imaging device when the movable portion is in a first position; moving the movable portion to a second position a precise distance from the first position; generating a second image of a second feature of the sample using the imaging device when the movable portion is in the second position; and computing a distance between the first feature and the second feature based on the images.
