Direct qualitative, quantitative, and imaging analysis of elements down to trace amounts in solid samples.
The laser ablation (LA) system equipped with a high repetition frequency laser and a galvanometric optical system, connected to the robust Thermo Scientific iCAP MX series ICP-MS, enables the acceleration, high precision, and expansion of elemental analysis capabilities.
■ Simplification and acceleration of elemental analysis
- Solid sample surfaces are sampled using laser irradiation and analyzed directly with ICP-MS.
- Complicated operations such as cleaning of instruments for traditional solution pre-treatment, and management of reagents and waste are no longer necessary, reducing costs, workload, and environmental impact.
■ Achieving sensitivity and precision equal to or greater than solution ICP-MS
- Elimination of weighing errors and contamination during traditional pre-treatment, as well as interferences caused by acids or solvents during measurement, enhances precision.
- High sensitivity is achieved through rapid ablation.
- Flexible and highly precise quantification methods can be applied, allowing for quantitative analysis even without standard samples of the same material as the sample.
■ Expansion of ICP-MS analytical capabilities
- Analysis of a wide range of samples, including difficult-to-dissolve samples, powder samples, and non-conductive samples, is possible.
- Wide-area 2D/3D elemental imaging is achievable, covering areas of several square centimeters and depths of several hundred micrometers.
- Accurate analysis is possible through imaging based on quantitative concentrations.
