Consideration of a millisecond pulsed glow discharge time-of-flight mass spectrometer for concurrent elemental and molecular analysis

Abstract: The glow discharge ionization source operated in the trace levels is becoming the major area of interest in analytical pulsed (or modulated ) power mode offers unique characchemistry. Therefore, any new analytical technique that is teristics not available from its steady state counterpart. It applied to these problems must be extremely sensitive. Other has been well established that higher instantaneous power applications that require molecular mass and elemental comdensities are obtainable without compromisin… Show more

“…In our pulsed RF system it is also possible to use the GD source time resolution to further separate analyte ions from polyatomic and discharge gas species because they are formed at different temporal and spatial locations. 20,21 For instance, Fig. 5a shows the mass spectrum interval between 27.…”

“…For example, Steiner et al took advantage of these temporal phenomena by sampling a pulsed millisecond GD at different points in time to produce complementary mass spectra without TOF (18). In the initial discharge breakdown period, the primary active ionization agents are electrons, which can be accelerated in the GD field to high energies.…”

“…By using a pulsed GD, it is possible to achieve a high instantaneous pulse power, avoiding over heating of the cathode [12][13][14] and generating different temporal regimes [15,16]. These regimes, prepeak, plateau, and afterglow, provide different information about the composition of a sample [17]. Ionization during the prepeak is dominated by electron ionization (EI), whereas the plateau regime consists of a mixture of EI, Penning ionization (PI) and charge exchange processes.…”
