Our MICRO probe station is a perfect solution for research groups where people working on a wide range of projects or for multi-user labs and research facilities. Our probe-station can be used to characterize microscale objects, manipulate micro- or nano- nanowires, precisely move 2D flakes, activate MEMS or optoelectronic devices, or quickly check if device contacts work before cooling down.
What's even better, anyone can learn to operate the setup independently after just 15 min training – so it can also be used for demonstrations and outreach.
One such group is Prof. Dr. Emil List-Kratochvil's team at Humboldt University Berlin, Germany.
"We have Imina's micro probe station with an integrated microscope and accessories for using miBots with other setups. We use miBots for a wide range of projects, from picking up single crystals and measuring conductivity of nanowires on prepatterned electrodes to contacting ionic liquid devices. We have the system from 2018, and it just works as it's supposed to" says Fabian Gärisch, a PhD student from this group.
A few examples of Fabian's work using miBots: Characterization of large-area MoS2-based optoelectronic devices and Characterization of graphene nanowires on hBN.
