Microscopic and chemical surface analysis

Knowledge about the condition of a surface is essential to characterise and functionalise surfaces or to detect possible surface defects. A wide range of measuring and testing methods are available for characterising the mechanical, chemical and physical surface properties.

  • Reflected and transmitted light microscopes
  • X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS/ESCA)
  • Molecular spectroscopy (FT-IR, Raman)
  • Electron microscopy (SEM-EDX/ESEM)
  • Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy (IR)
  • Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry
  • UV/Vis spectroscopy
