Molecular Spectroscopy Facility

Overview

The ICN2 Molecular Spectroscopy Facility is a set of laboratories providing access to state-of-the-art equipment for the physicochemical and structural characterisation of materials at the macro and nano scales. In addition to routine analyses, it also provides a range of highly demanding techniques and applications, thereby meeting researchers' need for basic and specific scientific analysis.

Besides technical support and training for user-operated equipment, the facility also offers case studies, not only to inform and advise researchers, but also to actively participate in the planning and developing of specific experiments and/or devices that enhance the performance of existing equipment.

Available techniques

• FTIR Spectroscopy

• UV-Vis Spectroscopy

• Multi-range Spectroscopy

• Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Zeta Potential

• Contact angle

• Optical Microscopy

CERCAGINYS is the access platform to the around 200 facilities of all the 41 CERCA institutes.
