The electrospray ionization technique was first reported by Masamichi Yamashita and John Fenn in 1984, [3] and independently by Lidia Gall and co-workers in Soviet Union, also in 1984. [4] Gall's work was not recognised or translated in the western scientific literature until a translation was published in 2008. [4]
In 1914, John Zeleny published work on the behaviour of fluid droplets at the end of glass capillaries. [5] This report presents experimental evidence for several electrospray operating regimes (dripping, burst, pulsating, and cone-jet). [6] A few years later, Zeleny captured the first time-lapse images of the dynamic liquid meniscus. [7]
A colloid thruster (or "electrospray thruster") is a type of low thrust electric propulsion rocket engine that uses electrostatic acceleration of charged liquid droplets for propulsion. In a colloid thruster, charged liquid droplets are produced by an electrospray process and then accelerated by a static electric field.
Electrospray ionization (ESI) is a technique that involves using high voltages to create an electrospray, or a fine aerosol created by the high voltages. [31] ESI sample preparation can be very important and the quality of results can be heavily determined by the characteristics of the sample. [32] ESI experiments can be run on-line or off-line.
A liquid metal ion source (LMIS) is an ion source which uses metal that is heated to the liquid state and used to form an electrospray to form ions. [1] [2] An electrospray Taylor cone is formed by the application of a strong electric field and ions are produced by field evaporation at the sharp tip of the cone, which has a high electric field.
Desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) is an ambient ionization technique that can be coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) for chemical analysis of samples at atmospheric conditions. Coupled ionization sources-MS systems are popular in chemical analysis because the individual capabilities of various sources combined with different MS systems ...
Electrospray-assisted laser desorption/ionization (ELDI) uses a 337 nm UV laser [79] or 3 μm infrared laser [80] to desorb material into an electrospray source. Matrix-assisted laser desorption electrospray ionization (MALDESI) [81] is an atmospheric pressure ionization source for generation of multiply charged ions. An ultraviolet or infrared ...
This cone was described by Sir Geoffrey Ingram Taylor in 1964 before electrospray was "discovered". [1] This work followed on the work of Zeleny [2] who photographed a cone-jet of glycerine in a strong electric field and the work of several others: Wilson and Taylor (1925), [3] Nolan (1926) [4] and Macky (1931).
