Nanoparticles

Nanoparticles and lipid bilayerNanoparticles are of great scientific interest as they bridge between bulk materials and atomic structures. Sensitive real-time monitoring with QCM-D enables the quantification of nanoparticle adsorption rate and layer thickness. Layer-by-layer assembly of nanoparticles can be successfully studied in-situ to determine the assembly properties.

Application areas within this field are listed below followed by relevant Application notes. See also the Nanoparticle Overview.

We offer a wide range of sensors with coatings suitable for different applications.

QCM-D can be combined with several other techniques to get simultaneous and complementary measurement data. Special modules are available for electrochemistry, microscopy or ellipsometry to mention some examples.
