If you're looking for a general-purpose potentiostat for cyclic voltammetry or similar studies for basic research such as determining redox potentials, reaction mechanisms, diffusion coefficients, rate constants and electrochemical surface area. You can also run electrochemical plating and electrodeposition experiments or experiments for determining concentrations of trace analytes in solution. In addition to the above capabilities you get an introductory software development toolkit that gives you the ability to develop your own program or interface to other instruments.
The Interface 1010 also comes in a more advanced model, the Interface 1010E. The 1010E provides all of the capabilities of the Interface 1010B and also includes electrochemical impedance spectroscopy capabilities.
The Interface 1010B can be upgraded to the more advanced system with an infield upgrade. You can get a great introductory instrument that can grow in capabilities with the needs of your lab. The Interface 1010B can be upgraded to an Interface 1010E. Contact us for more information on upgrading.
Below are additional details regarding the capabilities of the instrument. Each bullet point contains a list of the type of techniques available for the instrument to run.

Rating: 5.0
Organization: Stony Brook University
Application Area: Electrochemical film deposition and gas capture
"I recently purchased the Gamry Interface 1010B this year to support my new direction of electrochemistry research, and I have been very impressed with its reliability and straightforward operation. Despite its simple and intuitive interface, the instrument offers a remarkably wide range of advanced functions. I was so satisfied with its performance that I tested it further and decided to purchase an additional unit. Currently, I am using it not only for electrochemical materials deposition but also to analyze data such as CV curves to better understand the electrochemical interactions between deposited films and CO2. I am very excited about the possibilities this system enables in my research."
