Platypus provides customized SPR chips for your individual SPR needs. We can acquire high-grade optical glass per your specifications, coat it with your specific Ti and Au thicknesses, and cut it down to the size you need.
GOLD-COATED SUBSTRATESPlatypus offers gold-coated glass slides, mica, silicon wafers, and coverslips.
TEMPLATE STRIPPED GOLD CHIPSPlatypus® Template Stripped Gold Chips provide an extremely smooth and clean gold surface for a variety of research needs, including AFM and SEM applications, biosensor development, and SAMs studies. Immediately before use, simply strip a chip (1cm x 1cm) from a gold-coated templating surface. Choose between chips stripped from a gold-coated atomically flat, cleaved mica template or chips stripped from a gold-coated prime grade silicon wafer template. Unlike epitaxially grown or flame annealed atomically flat Au (111) terraces that are smooth over minute surface areas (< 2 um2), Platypus® Template Stripped Gold Chips have an ultraflat, thin film of gold that covers the entire surface area of the chip.
CUSTOM COATING PROJECTSPlatypus Technologies can produce customized Gold and/or Titanium coatings for biological, chemical, engineering, electrical and materials science applications. We can coat your own substrates, or we can coat our substrates according to your specifications.
