TOF SIMS INSTRUMENTS AND ION IMPLANTERS
Instruments
For over 30 years, Ionoptika has stood at the forefront of Ion Beam technology. From our inception, we’ve specialised in designing and developing high-performance instruments, collaborating closely with leading manufacturers and researchers worldwide. Today, we continue to push boundaries, offering advanced instruments that redefine what’s possible in surface analysis, materials engineering, and beyond.
WE EMBRACE CHALLENGES
A Track Record of Innovation
Ionoptika has always embraced challenges that others might consider too complex or demanding. This approach has led to amazing milestones in our history, including the creation of the first carbon fullerene (C60) ion source and the first gold cluster ion source for secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). These innovations display our pioneering spirit, and they have paved the way for cutting-edge instruments that are trusted by researchers across various disciplines.

Q-One
Ionoptika’s Q-One ion implanter is the world’s first instrument specifically designed for deterministic single-ion implantation. This state-of-the-art platform is at the cutting edge of quantum technology and nanoscale materials engineering. The Q-One enables the placement of single ions with exceptional precision, making it indispensable for researchers working on the next generation of quantum devices.
Deterministic single ion implantation is a critical technique in quantum research, where the exact placement of individual atoms is essential. The Q-One achieves this with up to 98% detection efficiency, thanks to our proprietary DetectION™ technology. This system ensures that each ion implantation event is detected and recorded, providing the accuracy required for advanced quantum applications.
Key Features:
High-Resolution Ion Beam
Wide Range of Ion Sources
Nanometre Precision
Proprietary Software
