PSM

Potential-Seebeck-Microprobe / PSMII

For studying samples which show an inhomogeneous sample composition, spatially resolved measurements of the electrical conductivity σ and the Seebeck coefficient S are of special interest. In our laboratory a Potential-Seebeck-Microprobe PSMII (PANCO GmbH) is available which measures S and σ of a sample surface spatially resolved with a resolution of up to 5 μm.
