Accelerating physical materials discovery

01 / 03

One continuous discovery engine

Run high-throughput measurements across complementary analytical methods without a single sample transfer or realignment. Every result stays registered to the same reference frame, creating continuous, directly comparable data from start to finish.

Swissmapper continuous discovery engine

Complementary methods, one platform

Combine structural, chemical, mechanical, optical, electrical, and topographical measurements in one coordinated characterization environment.

XRD

Phase composition, texture, grain size, lattice parameters

XRF

Elemental composition

Nanoindentation

Hardness, elastic modulus

Reflectometry

Optical layer response

Ellipsometry

Refractive index, film thickness

Confocal microscopy

3D surface topography, roughness, layer morphology

Four-point probe

Sheet resistance, resistivity

Raman spectroscopy

Bonding, stress and phase fingerprints
