RTA Instruments Ltd is a sales and support company focused on three principal market areas.

Electron microscopy and X-ray microanalysis

X-ray microanalysis is used routinely in both TEM and SEM applications to characterize materials properties. We represent the Thermo Fisher Scientific X-ray microanalysis product range in the UK and Ireland with the Noran System 7 EDS and MagnaRay WDS products.

Surface analysis and surface science

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) are well established analytical techniques used extensively in industry and academic research. The K-Alpha monochromated XPS system is defining a new path in both these markets. RTA Instruments has an established background in these areas and a strong network within the UK and Ireland.

Thin films, deposition and epitaxy

Our customers are the European research and development laboratories, production facilities and equipment manufacturers focused on thin films in particular molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and metalorganic chemical vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE).

RTA Instruments has an established reputation for service, quality, experience, dependability of supply and value. Our objective is to provide the specialist products that these markets increasingly require and to develop our relationships with the user communities. This ensures that we are able respond to user requirements and to provide the necessary technologies.
