DESI is a combination of popular techniques, such as, electrospray ionization and surface desorption techniques. Electrospray ionization with mass spectrometry was reported by Malcolm Dole in 1968, [8] but John Bennett Fenn was awarded a nobel prize in chemistry for the development of ESI-MS in the late 1980s. [9]
Extractive electrospray ionization is a spray-type, ambient ionization method that uses two merged sprays, one of which is generated by electrospray. [ 49 ] Laser-based electrospray-based ambient ionization is a two-step process in which a pulsed laser is used to desorb or ablate material from a sample and the plume of material interacts with ...
DESI and DART are considered as pioneer techniques in the field of ambient ionization, [4] since they operate in the open laboratory environment and do not require sample pretreatment. [5] [6] In contrast to the liquid spray used by DESI, the ionizing gas from the DART ion source contains a dry stream containing excited state species.
[13] [9] [2] In addition to the source geometry optimization, the electrospray solvent composition has an effect on the MALDESI signals (i.e. influencing molecular coverage and ion abundance). In a study to improve the detection of tissue-specific lipids, the electrospray parameters have been tailored for positive and negative ionization ...
Nanospray desorption electrospray ionization (nano-DESI) is an ambient pressure ionization technique used in mass spectrometry (MS) for chemical analysis of organic molecules. [1] In this technique, analytes are desorbed into a liquid bridge formed between two capillaries and the sampling surface. [ 2 ]
Early developments in the desorption of open surface and free matrix experiments were first reported in literature in 1999 in an experiment using desorption/ionization on silicon (DIOS). [7] DAPPI replaced techniques such as desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) and direct analysis in real time (DART). This generation of techniques are all ...
Schematic diagram of ion trap mass spectrometer with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source and Paul ion trap. A Paul trap is a type of quadrupole ion trap that uses static direct current (DC) and radio frequency (RF) oscillating electric fields to trap ions. Paul traps are commonly used as components of a mass spectrometer.
Molecular ion beam deposition employs electrospray ionization or MALDI sources. [3] The ions are then accelerated, focused or deflected using high voltages or magnetic fields. Optional deceleration at the substrate can be employed to define the deposition energy. This energy usually ranges from a few eV up to a few keV. [3]
