The Oregon Center for Electrochemistry maintains a state of the art electrochemistry facility for use by academic, government, and industry partners.
Core equipment includes multichannel Biologic potentiostats (with fA to 10A current capability), rotating disk electrode workstation (Pine), electrolysis workstations, fuel cell workstations, battery assembly Ar-filled glove box, and battery cyclers.
Please contact pkempler@uoregon.edu or swb@uoregon.edu if you would like to use this equipment and laboratory.
We also make use of the exceptional shared materials characterization facilities in CAMCOR that are open to for use by all academics, industry, and national lab researchers globally.
The facility also maintains several small instruments:
Wyatt Mobius Dynamic Light Scattering and Zeta Potential Measurement Instrument.
“The finest, most versatile light scattering instrument for reliable electrophoretic mobility and size measurements of proteins, polymers, and all types of nanoparticles.”
