Product Overview
The PIKE AGA (Advanced Grazing Angle) accessory is the definitive tool for researchers studying sub-micron films and molecular monolayers. By utilizing grazing angles of incidence (typically 60° to 85°), the interaction between the infrared beam and the surface film is dramatically increased. This provides the sensitivity required to detect and identify layers that are only a few nanometers thick.This accessory is particularly powerful when used with an automated polarizer to perform p-polarization studies, which further enhances the signal from surface-bound molecules. It is an essential tool for high-end research in nanotechnology, surface science, and semiconductor manufacturing. The AGA features high-efficiency gold-coated optics and a precision alignment mechanism to ensure maximum performance for these challenging measurements
