High-Purity Gold (Au) Coated Borosilicate Coverslips

Optimize your imaging and analysis with our premium gold-coated coverslips, specifically engineered for microscopy, AFM, SPM, and biotechnology. We utilize high-grade borosilicate glass substrates, selected for their excellent thermal resistance, chemical durability, and high optical quality.

  • Advanced Adhesion & Purity: All coverslips undergo a rigorous pre-cleaning process before being coated via electron beam (EB) evaporation in a high-vacuum environment. A precision chromium interlayer is used to ensure superior gold-to-glass bonding.

  • Precision Thickness Options: While our standard gold thickness is 50 nm, we also offer specialized coatings at 10 nm, 100 nm, and 500 nm to suit a variety of research requirements.

  • Secure Gel-Pak® Shipping: To guarantee pristine surface quality, our coverslips are packaged in X0 Gel-Pak boxes. This specialized vacuum-grade packaging keeps the coated surfaces immobile and protected from scratches or contact during transit.

  • Biological Compatibility: Our gold-coated borosilicate coverslips are fully autoclavable, making them ideal for sterile environments and sensitive biological experiments.

  • Custom Fabrication: We offer bespoke coating services for customer-provided substrates and can fabricate custom dimensions or material stacks upon request.
