M470
The M470 is BioLogic's modular scanning probe electrochemistry workstation. It can run nine local techniques, including SECM, ic-SECM, LEIS, SVET and SKP, so one platform can map surface activity, local impedance, local potential, local current and topography. That range makes it valuable for localised corrosion, coatings, catalysis, biological samples and battery electrode studies. The stage scans 110 mm in x, y and z with a minimum step of 20 nm and a maximum speed of 10 mm/s. Positioning uses closed loop, linear, zero hysteresis encoders with real-time readout on every axis. An SP-300 potentiostat drives the measurements, with current ranges from 100 pA to 1 A and impedance from 10 µHz to 3 MHz. The overall footprint is 500 mm high, 400 mm wide and 675 mm deep. Groups in materials engineering, surface science and electrochemistry use it to see where reactions actually happen rather than averaging across a whole electrode. East coast customers can have the M470 installed on site, with hands-on training for users. Contact us to discuss techniques and pricing.
