Structural Diagram of Piezodrive for Nanotechnology and Medical Science
Main Article Content
Abstract
The piezodrive is used for nanotechnology, medical science and precision engineering in adaptive optics, scanning microscopy for research DNA. The structural diagram of the piezodrive for nanotechnology, medical science, and precision engineering is determined with using the equation of the linear ordinary second-order differential equation and the equation for the reverse piezoeffect. The matrix transfer function of the piezodrive is obtained. The block diagrams of the piezodrive are determined for distributed and lumped parameters.
