Summary

Machine-generated summary

The Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering (ISIC) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) intends to purchase a state-of-the-art XPS system equipped with a UV source for UPS, a monatomic ion gun and a gas cluster ion gun for depth profiling. The instrument will operate in open access, serving around 40 research groups, mainly from ISIC and the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (IMX), plus other EPFL users. In this multi-user setting, easy handling of the instrument and software, low risk of mishandling, limited measurement artefacts and fast, efficient turnover between users are essential prerequisites. Given the diversity of research at EPFL, the system must offer a broad range of functionalities, not be limited to one measurement type, and remain open to future upgrades and developments.

Description

L'Institut des sciences et ingénierie chimiques (ISIC) de l'École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) souhaite acquérir un système XPS de pointe équipé d'une source UV pour l'UPS, d'un canon à ions monoatomiques et d'un canon à agrégats gazeux pour le profilage en profondeur. L'instrument sera en accès libre et servira environ 40 groupes de recherche, principalement de l'ISIC et de l'Institut des sciences et ingénierie des matériaux (IMX), ainsi que d'autres utilisateurs de l'ensemble de l'EPFL. Dans ce contexte multi-utilisateurs, une manipulation aisée de l’instrument et de son logiciel, un faible risque de mauvaise manipulation, des artefacts de mesure limités, ainsi qu'une rotation rapide et efficace entre utilisateurs sont des prérequis essentiels. En raison de la grande diversité des recherches menées à l'EPFL, l'instrument choisi devra offrir un large éventail de fonctionnalités. Il ne devra pas se limiter à un type particulier de mesure et devra rester ouvert à de futures mises à niveau et développements.
