SIGMA Surface Science

MANTIS-SIGMA is the partnership of two speciality vacuum system manufacturers, and SIGMA Surface Science GmbH and MANTIS Deposition Ltd. Together we manufacture components and systems for the development and analysis of new materials and devices using PVD, MBE and PLD growth techniques and then subsequent analysis using High-Speed XPS and Low-Temperature SPM. SIGMA's unique Dynamic XPS capability ensures that materials processing can be investigated in real-time whilst Mantis remains the leading developer of the tools for generation and deposition of nanoparticle-based materials in vacuum. We have locations in Germany, the United Kingdom and the USA and offer unmatched technical support for all our customers.Working in partnership we offer the complete solution for the development and analysis of all nanoscale based devices and materials. Combining PVD, MBE or PLD with XPS or SPM, has never been so easy or seamless. No other company develops and manufactures both tools for device creation and characterization under one roof.
