Design considerations for ultra-precision magnetic bearing supported slidesDevelopment plans for a prototype servocontrolled machine with 1 angstrom resolution of linear motion and 50 mm range of travel are described. Two such devices could then be combined to produce a two dimensional machine for probing large planar objects with atomic resolution, the Angstrom Resolution Measuring Machine (ARMM).
