| Tascon USA is a contract laboratory specializing in chemical surface analysis. One area of expertise is glass and ceramic analysis, especially coatings. |
| The properties of glass can be specifically tailored by changing the chemical composition of the bulk (doping) or surface (deposition of layers). Therefore, the near surface composition is of specific interest in many areas. This composition can be probed using Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Typical analysis tasks include the identification of inclusions, detection of contaminants, and layer elucidation of optical coatings. Applications are not only restricted to highly sophisticated optical or medical devices but also include all domestic and technical glasses. |
