Uniscan Instruments announces the introduction of the scanning droplet system, model SDS370, to complement its range of scanning probe instrumentation
The scanning droplet technique confines a liquid in contact with a sample surface in order to measure electrochemical and corrosion reactions over a limited region where the droplet is actually in contact with the sample.
This offers the ability to spatially resolve electrochemical activity and to confine it exclusively to a quantifiable area of the sample.
The SDS370 scanning droplet system allows a spatially resolved, in-situ investigation by the standard electrochemical techniques such as line scans, area maps, potentiostatic pulse steps and open circuit measurements.
The SDS370 is used in conjunction with the M370 X,Y,Z stage incorporating higher stability, flatness, measurement precision and all scanning axis benefit from highly accurate optical encoders providing precise closed loop feedback positioning over the full scan length.
The SDS370 expands the range of scanning electrochemical techniques available from Uniscan Instruments for research and industrial applications and compliments the SVET, LEIS, SKP, SECM and OSP instruments already announced.
