Multi-Technique UHV Surface Analysis Systems

Our custom, multi-technique UHV systems combine a wide range of thin film deposition/growth and UHV surface analysis techniques into a single, versatile system that doesn't cost the earth. Available as both bespoke turnkey systems, such as our standalone UHV TPD Station, and as modular add-on's to extend the capabilities of existing equipment, they are the centre piece of any laboratory. Fully automated sample handling and transfer between introduction, preparation and analysis chambers is combined with a wide range of options for precise sample heating and cooling.

UHV Chambers: Load Lock, Preparation, Analysis etc.:

Our multi-technique materials growth and analysis systems combine a wide range of thin film deposition & growth (PVD, PLD, MBE etc.), spectroscopy (XPS, AES, UPS, SIMS etc.) and UHV SPM techniques.
