In this paper, it develops a precision long-stroke 3-DOF nano-stage for the nano photonic crystal process. It
integrates a linear motor driven long-stroke stage, a piezoelectric driven three-degrees-of-freedom (3-DOF) nano stage,
multi-degrees-of-freedom (MDOF) laser interferometer measurement system and their control systems. The long-stroke
nano-stage is a hybrid precision stage that can provide long-stroke and high precision positioning. The common focus
horizon regulation system is used to keep the parallelism between writing instrument and the target while the laser direct
writing instrument is used to write the nano structure needed. Furthermore, the automatic focusing and horizon control
system can compensate the defocusing and angular errors that caused by machining automatically. With this precision 3-DOF nano-stage, the laser direct writing system can improve the process speed, overcome the optical limit of
interference to reduce the writing spot, generate arbitrary patterns.
