About Company

Utilising a wide range of techniques CSMA interrogate surfaces, layer systems and interfaces of most materials. Working with clients to solve problems, as part of a quality control system, to validate a process, in litigation cases using our accredited expert witnesses or routine analysis CSMA can help clients in a range of industries.

Types of analysis undertaken by CSMA:

• Surface chemical mapping of organic and inorganic chemistry, for applications in the pharmaceutical, packaging and life sciences industries.
• Film thickness and density determination.
• Development of novel materials
• Failure analysis in a wide range of industries including hard discs, microelectronics, life sciences, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, glass and automotive.
• Determining topographic information.
• Non-destructive detection of physical defects.
• Quantitative chemistry of organic and inorganic materials including oxidation states for applications in a variety of technology sectors including non-destructive depth profiling of oxynitrides and ultra thin mixed metal oxides.
• Dose measurements, dopant diffusion, process monitoring in silicon devices and growth of III/V or II/VI compound semiconductors.
• Dopant solubility and diffusion measurements in ultra thin layers such as SiGe, stained silicon, oxynitrides, high k materials and a range of new applications in the areas of layers on glass, light emitting devices and MQW in III/V compound semiconductors.
• Quantitative depth profiling of oxides, nitrides, alloys, BPSG and other complex compounds.
• Accurate compositional measurements of a wide range of alloys, nitrides and oxides.
