Hello Suhail,

I guess it really depends on your budget. The Keithley SMU is a great piece of kit. During my PhD I conducted the majority of my electrochemical measurements with SMUs (specifically Agilent's B1550A semiconductor analyser and some older Keithley SMUs) without any issues.

Keithley have started to provide guides on using their SMUs for electrochemical measurements. In fact; they offer the 2450-EC model:

However, the Autloab potentiostat will come with software tailored for performing a range of electrochemical measurements and to perform analysis. Furthermore, you'll also have access to their customer support.

Respected Jules Lloyd Hammond Sir,

Thank you for adding very much helpful information.

I still have the question that is it worth buying Autolab potentiostat presently for IV measurements of a solar cells. and for later we can have the attachments of EIS.

Please help me in this confusion?

I suggest you to see Origaflex OGF 500 at

http://www.origalys.co.uk/origaflex-ogf500-pack-c2x21198928

You may use a Live chat option there.

You may add a EIS module later.

I have experience with this instrument and I recommend it.

Suhail Anjum Abdur Raheem Sayyed What equipment did you choose? I´m looking for the same as you. I´m thinking in https://www.tek.com/keithley-source-measure-units/smu-2450-60-graphical-sourcemeter-manual-12, I want

to make JV measurements, thanks in advance
