Abstract
A simple positioner, which allows one to ensure the position of a focused light beam on an object with nanometer precision and reproducibility, is proposed and studied. It can be used for positioning of focused beams (in particular, laser beams) on surfaces of optical fibers, biological objects, optical disks, thin film modulators, and holographic memory systems in the micrometer and nanometer ranges.
