Thermal Micropositioning

Thermal Micropositioning is a precision actuation method that utilizes controlled thermal expansion and contraction within microscale systems to achieve sub-micron positional adjustments, distinguished from other micropositioning techniques by its reliance on thermal effects as the primary actuation mechanism.
