Mass Analyzers: Common Types01:19

Mass Analyzers: Common Types

The quadrupole mass analyzer consists of four cylindrical metal rods arranged in a diamond carrying a DC voltage and a radio-frequency AC voltage. The motion of ions through the quadrupole depends on the field strength, causing only ions of a certain m/z to resonate successfully and strike the detector at a given field strength. Though the transmission rate for these analyzers is high, the exact elemental composition of the sample is not determined because of low resolution; however, they are...
Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Principle01:19

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Principle

Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the most widely used plasma source in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), also known as Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The ICP source, or torch, consists of three concentric quartz tubes with argon gas flowing through them. A spark from a Tesla coil initiates the ionization of argon, generating a high-temperature plasma.
The ions and electrons produced interact with the fluctuating magnetic field created by a water-cooled...

Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry (ICP–MS): Overview

In inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS), an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch is used as an atomizer and ionizer. Solid samples are dissolved and volatilized before being introduced into the high-temperature argon plasma, while solution samples are nebulized and passed through the high-temperature argon plasma. Plasma dissociates the analytes and ionizes their component atoms to form a mixture of positive ions and molecular species. The positive ions are then passed on to...
Ion-Exchange Chromatography01:09

Ion-Exchange Chromatography

Ion-exchange chromatography, or IEC, is a technique for separating ions based on their affinity for the stationary phase. The stationary phase is a cross-linked polymer resin with covalently attached ionic functional groups. The functional groups can be either positively charged (cation exchangers) or negatively charged (anion exchangers). A cation exchanger consists of a polymeric anion and active cations, while an anion exchanger is a polymeric cation with active anions. The choice of...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy  (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used.
Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy: Radiation and Light Sources01:13

Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy: Radiation and Light Sources

Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) relies on the Beer-Lambert law, which requires that the radiation source emits a narrow range of wavelengths to match the absorption characteristics of the analyte atom. The primary criteria for choosing an appropriate radiation source in AAS is to provide a precise and intense emission at specific wavelengths that will allow accurate detection of the analyte.
Two common narrow-range 'line' sources used in AAS are hollow-cathode lamps (HCLs) and...

Area of Science:

  • Plasma Physics
  • Ion Source Technology

Background:

  • Conventional circular closed drift ion sources offer high ionization efficiency and low ion beam energy.
  • A key limitation of circular ion sources is the difficulty in scaling up the ion beam size.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and test a new linear ion source with an extended acceleration region.
  • To overcome the beam size limitations inherent in traditional circular ion sources.

Main Methods:

  • A linear ion source with a horse-track shaped ceramic channel (270 mm width) was developed.
  • Discharge characteristics and extracted ion beam currents were measured for inert (Argon) and reactive (Oxygen) gases.
  • Ion beam current density and spatial uniformity were evaluated at a distance of 100 mm.

Main Results:

  • Discharge ignition was achieved at 90 V, with discharge current increasing proportionally to voltage up to 16.3 A (Argon) and 15.6 A (Oxygen) at 320 V.
  • Extracted ion beam current also increased with discharge voltage, saturating after 280 V.
  • Maximum current densities of 0.78 mA/cm² (Argon) and 0.73 mA/cm² (Oxygen) were recorded.
  • Argon ion beams exhibited superior spatial uniformity compared to oxygen beams.

Conclusions:

  • The newly designed linear ion source effectively addresses the beam size limitations of circular designs.
  • The device demonstrates efficient gas discharge and produces substantial ion beam currents for both Argon and Oxygen.
  • The findings suggest the linear ion source is a promising alternative for applications requiring larger, uniform ion beams.
