Electrochemical QCM-D Demo Analysis

The functionality and performance of organic layers can be determined by their conformation, porosity and swelling state. One approach to characterize these properties is to use a combination of the complementary techniques QCM-D and ellipsometry, which allows for the quantification of the layer mass and porosity. In this white paper we outline the theory behind such quantification and provide guidance on how to do such an analysis.

QSense Omni is an out-of-the-box solution that includes everything you need to get started. It offers flexible automatic sample handling, quality control, direct injection fluidics, and liquid exchange. The instrument has integrated sample heating, automatic sensor locking, and live script editing, giving you the freedom to build the system to suit your needs now and in the future. 

QSense QCM-D is a surface sensitive, real-time technology used to explore, characterize and optimize surface interactions, reactions as well as thin film properties. In this overview we summarize the information that can be extracted from the QCM-D analysis.
