Millbrook Scientific Instruments plc supplies a range of equipment for the measurement of mechanical, optical and chemical nanoscale properties of solid surfaces.For chemical surface analysis the Millbrook MiniSIMS uses Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) to provide detailed chemical information from just the topmost atomic layers of substrate surfaces such as glasses, metals or plastics or of thin films and coatings applied to them.

Combined with mapping and profiling abilities, the easy to use benchtop MiniSIMS provides true 3D surface analysis capabilities at a fraction of the cost of traditional UHV equipment. Consequently at the present time the MiniSIMS is being used in industries and university departments worldwide encompassing disciplines from biomaterials to electronics.

Optical properties can be measured by the Aquila ‘nkd’ spectrophotometer range which is capable of high precision, non destructive analysis of film thickness, refractive index and absorption for single and multi-layer nanoscale films on both transparent and absorbing substrates.

A complete nano-mechanical testing solution is provided by the Micro Materials nanoTest system, which as well as nano-indentation and nano-scratch at ambient or high temperatures can perform measurements for study of nano-wear and dynamic nano-impact testing.
