Abstract
Capacitive sensors are a good choice for sub-nanometer-resolution position measurements, but their performance is dependent on the correct alignment. Therefore, a capacitive sensor with an integrated self-alignment system has been developed which enables the use of capacitive sensors without alignment problems due to mounting and fabrication tolerance.
