Non-contact Optical Surface Profiler
VS-OSP
-
The VersaSCAN OSP integrates the Base with a high-accuracy, high-speed laser displacement sensor. The OSP technique uses diffuse reflection mechanism to measure topography of a sample. OSP can be used to measure topography, as a very sensitive leveling mechanism, or charting topography to be implemented with other scanning probe techniques for constant-distance mode operation.

CellTest Multichannel Potentiostat
-
Simultaneous Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) tests can be run on multiple cells by connecting Solartron 1455A/1451A series frequency response analyzer (FRA) modules to the 1470E. These FRAs can operate in single sine correlation or multi-sine / Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis mode, providing the ultimate in speed, precision and accuracy. The 1455A FRA provides high performance impedance measurements over the frequency range 10 μHz to 1 MHz, while the 1451A FRA operates from 10 μHz to 100 kHz.

LHe/LN2 Cryostat System
129610A
-
Liquid nitrogen (LN2) or liquid helium (LHe) can be used as the cryogen depending on the required operating temperature range. This allows standard tests to be performed using relatively low cost LN2 as the cryogen. Higher cost LHe can be substituted for the duration of tests where very low temperature is required, providing an economical solution to your test requirements.

Single Channel Potentiostats
-
Potentiostats control a voltage and measure a resulting current. The Control Amplifier outputs power to the counter electrode (also called auxiliary electrode). A feedback loop is established to control the cell potential between the reference and working electrode. This voltage is measured by the input electrometer, that has a high impedance. This current is then measured between the working and counter electrodes while this potential is maintained at the working electrode and reference electrode.

PARSTAT 3000A-DX
-
The PARSTAT 3000A-DX from Princeton Applied Research is both a hardware synchronized bipotentiostat/galvanostat and dual channel potentiostat/galvanostat in one. The compact design, based on the popular PARSTAT 3000A, combines 2 high performance, independent potentiostats in a single chassis. Combine this with a hardware synchronized start and the VersaStudio software platform for a fully functional bipotentiostat that is suitable for a range of applications from mechanistic studies and electrocatalyst evaluation using a rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) to sensor development.

Single Channel Potentiostats
12XX Series
-
The 12xx Series Potentiostats has two current models: the 1287A and 1280Z. This family of potentiostats communicate through trusted GPIB interface technology that can convert to USB for easy connection modern computers. The Solartron Analytical 1287A and 1280Z are often driven by CorrWare software for DC testing, such as Cyclic Voltammetry, and ZPLOT for AC testing, such as Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy.

Localized Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
VS-LEIS
-
The VersaSTAT 3F applies an AC voltage to the sample emerged in electrolyte. This "global" voltage generates AC current to flow at the electrode / electrolyte interface. A dual-element probe is positioned in solution close to the surface of the sample. The electrometer measures a differential voltage measure between the two measurement elements as a measure of local voltage-drop in solution. This voltage-drop exists in solution because of current flow from local reactions at the sample, the resistance of the electrolyte and the spatial separation of the dual measurement elements.

Scanning Droplet Cell
VS-SDC
-
Scanning Droplet System (SDC) uses a compact peristaltic pump to force electrolyte through a small diameter tube and into a specifically designed head. This PTFE-based SDC head is machined to allow electrolyte to flow past an installed Reference Electrode and then to a port at the base of the head.

Frequency Response Analyzers
-
Frequency Response Analysis (also referred to as Transfer Function Analysis) measures the output spectrum of a system relative to a stimulus, and is used to characterize the dynamics of the system under test. The technique measures the magnitude and phase relationship between output and input waveforms as a function of frequency. The input signals may be from a wide range of sensors including acoustic (microphones/sonar), mechanical (accelerometers/displacement transducers), optical (photodetectors), and electrical (amplifiers).
