The Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering (IOM)

About

The Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering (IOM) is a non-profit, non-university research institute. The core competence of the institute is application-oriented basic research in the field of non-thermal material conversion as well as technical and procedural developments of ion, electron, photon and plasma tools with the aim of target-oriented surface engineering (such as smoothing, structuring, coating, functionalizing) and the technological implementation of the results in industry and society. Expertise from physics, chemistry and engineering sciences is combined to continuously expand the technological competencies of the institute.

Role in the project

The “Material Characterisation and Analytical Service” unit, which takes part in the SORT4CIRC project, provides the institute with a broad portfolio of instrumental methods. A focus is set on surface-related analytical techniques. Therefore, imaging methods are of utmost importance in the spectrum of analytical techniques. Moreover, numerous other techniques are available for the determination of the elemental and chemical composition, the analysis of molecular, crystalline, and phase conditions, as well as to characterise functional properties of materials.
