The Krüss DSA 100S Drop Shape Analyzer will analyze the shape a drop of liquid on a surface, or suspended from a needle, in order to calculate the contact angle, or the surface tension, respectively. It is mostly used to determine the contact angle of water as a measure of the hydrophobicity/hydrophility of the sample surface.

Atomika SIMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE

Unless otherwise stated, all content on this page was created by Jonas Michael-Lindhard, DTU Nanolab

We have decommissioned the SIMS we had at DTU Nanolab. We can guide you to another site for SIMS analysis, take a look here: [1].

The SIMS analyses the composition of a sample by secondary ion mass spectroscopy. By using either oxygen or cesium ions accelerated by a high tension the surface of the sample is sputtered off as ions. These ions are analysed in a mass spectrometer and one can determine the elemental composition as a function of depth. If compared to signals from reference materials one can quantify the atomic composition - in certain cases down to extremely low concentrations (ppm). Doping levels and impurities may be determined..
