The MESOMERIE experiments are performed in the analytics competence-center of the InnovationLab GmbH of the leading edge cluster Forum Organic Electronics.
The heart of the analytics competence center is the cluster tool consisting of a unique combination of preparation and analytics chambers under ultra-high vacuum (FT infrared spectroscopy from far IR to near IR, photoelectron spectroscopy XPS, UPS, IPES, and various scanning microscopies AFM, SKP, REM and a transfer to transmission electron microscopy).
The ultra-high vacuum conditions ensure well-defined samples as necessary for studies of basic material and transport properties. IR studies are dedicated to the growth of organic layers under physical vapor deposition, to doping effects, to optical and transport properties, interface effects, metal contact formation, and degradation phenomena.
