Working in a surface science lab, you surround yourself with analysis equipment that you need to progress in your work. The benefits of running combination measurements could be three-fold.
Model membranes are used in various fields of research. Read about how these lipid membranes can be characterized using QSense QCM-D technology.
Nanoparticle size is one of the key parameters that are relevant to characterize in nanoparticle suspensions. Here we list six different methods that you can use to characterize the nanoparticle size.
QCM-D and ellipsometry are two surface sensitive real-time technologies that can be used in combination to give synergistic effects. To make to most of the combined output data, there are some aspects to consider when setting up the combined experiment and when analyzing the captured data.
The mass extracted by QCM-D and ellipsometry are often not the same. Read about what the difference is between these masses, and why they are not equal.
The concept ‘Biomaterial’ is fairly frequently encountered. Read about what defines a biomaterial and where this category of material is used.
Thin-film degradation and material desorption is sometimes wanted and sometimes not. Learn about how it can be characterized by QCM-D.
Surfaces are all around us. To control the macroscale we need to understand and tune the nanoscale. Learn more about QCM-D can help.
