Quality Control

Our atomic hydrogen products are supplied under strict quality protocols to ensure isotopic purity and defined quantum state populations where applicable. Production and handling occur in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) or controlled plasma environments to minimize contamination. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific parameters such as isotopic composition, energy state distribution, and background gas analysis are provided with each order to meet the exacting requirements of research and high-tech applications.

Storage

As a highly volatile and gaseous species under standard conditions, atomic hydrogen cannot be stored conventionally. It is typically generated on-demand in specialized UHV systems, plasma chambers, or atomic beam sources. For systems designed to contain atomic hydrogen, maintain extreme vacuum conditions (typically < 10-9 mbar) and use inert, passivated surfaces to minimize recombination. Long-term storage is not feasible; immediate use upon generation is standard practice.
