| Research Abstract |
In this project, we proposed Nanotool Exchanger System (NTExS) to realize automation of exchange with different end-effectors for nanomanipulation Through the NTExS, the following advantages are mainly obtained, 1) it is not needed to open the sample chamber for exchange of nanotools by evacuation of sample chamberin a short time, 2) it is not needed to operate manually to exchange nanotools, 3) it is possible to recover the nanotools by exchanging new backup one, 4) it is possible to use different tools continuously. In this research, we developed the NTExS for nanomanipulation system inside Environmental-Scanning Electron Microscope (E-SEM) for manipulation of cells.
