Our platform performs surface analysis to determine the composition and chemical nature of species for a large number of fields covering chemistry (catalysis, combustion, corrosion, materials science), biology and geology (isotopic enrichment). We are open to all academic and industrial collaborations and propose services in line with our expertise.
