What Our Customers Think

“Ionoptika have continued to innovate and express an unrelenting willingness to take on new challenges… The J105 was a truly revolutionary SIMS instrument when it hit the market and continues to deliver excellent results from a wide range of sample types.”

John FletcherProfessor, University of Gothenburg

“From the outset, Ionoptika proved to be risk-takers and willing to work closely with academia to push the boundaries of ion beam technology… From gold clusters and C60 through to water GCIBs, Ionoptika have delivered time and again on collaborations which have changed the way the community does SIMS.“

Nick LockyerProfessor, University of Manchester

“It is true to say that without this company’s willingness and enthusiasm to embrace challenging new ideas in ion beam and secondary ion mass spectrometer design, the application of SIMS to the surface characterisation of chemically complex materials would not have progressed so well.”

John VickermanEmeritus Professor, University of Manchester

“[Ionoptika] 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.”

Mark BrouardProfessor of Chemistry

“I would like to offer my praise for the instrument that Ionoptika has 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.”

Roger WebbProfessor of Ion Beam Physics, & Director of the UK National Ion Beam Centre
