LABORATORIES

Others

Apart from the group’s facilities, which include an optical microscope and atomic force microscope, we have access to the facilities of the IMN (Bruker DRX, high-resolution SEM, etc.)

AFM

Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is a powerful technique that allows studying the surface of materials at nanometer scale.

Density measurement

Density determination of solids by Archimedes method with a XSE105DU analytical balance from Mettler Toledo.

3D printer

3D printer. Bambu Lab X1-Carbon

Postprocessing

For the thermal treatments, we are equipped with a MILA-5000 series that can perform high speed heating and cooling. This oven is based on a near-infrared lamp for a precise temperature control. Also we have a tubular oven that can reach 1150º C at controlled atmospheres.

Contact angle measuring system

Linkam THMS600

Tubular furnace

Tubular furnace with Eurotherm controller (from Hobersal), maximum temperature 1150ºC and possibility of performing the treatments in controlled atmosphere.

XRF

Powerful premium model for accurate coating thickness measurement and material analysis on the smallest structures and thinnest coatings
