Testimonials

Prior to moving the instrument, I was able to spend time at Ionoptika headquarters, testing the instrument. This was a great experience and the team at Ionoptika were brilliant and very efficient. I am looking forward to continuing to work with the team at Ionoptika and the University of Oxford to continue to develop this prototype.

At this point in time I still do not know of a competing instrument with the capabilities provided by the Q-One product and would like to offer my praise for the instrument that Ionoptika have designed and built to our requirements. It has been and continues to be a great pleasure working with your team at Ionoptika on such a collaborative venture.

We initially approached Ionoptika about providing an Ion Beam for our novel stigmatic imaging SIMS project. However, given their expertise in this area our discussions quickly turned to Ionoptika designing much more of the basic instrument for us. This has been very helpful as it has allowed us to focus on other key aspects of the project. They have been fantastic to work with on this project – very open and helpful and have a very collaborative approach that has really helped to improve the final design. My expectations have certainly been met and I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of building an instrument for their lab.

At the University of Surrey, we are delighted to be working in collaboration with Ionoptika to build the next generation of the Water Cluster SIMS around our MeV beamline, enabling multimodal and elemental imaging in fields as diverse as lipidomics and battery materials. Their team helped by providing access to their laboratory to provide proof of concept data and we have worked together with their engineers to design the system, which will be unique internationally.

With the innovative J105, Ionoptika set the SIMS community on a new path towards molecular depth profiling and 3D imaging on practical timescales.

As a company, Ionoptika do not shy away from a challenge and their pioneering spirit has led to important developments in SIMS technology. Our J105 instrument allows us to tackle challenges in new ways, delivering high quality data form a wide range of inorganic to clinical samples.
