Detection of ZrO2 Nanoparticles in Lung Tissue Sections by Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry and Ion Beam Microscopy [PDF]
Nanomaterials, 2018 The increasing use of nanoparticles (NP) in commercial products requires elaborated techniques to detect NP in the tissue of exposed organisms. However, due to the low amount of material, the detection and exact localization of NP within tissue sections ...

Microscope imaging by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry [PDF]
Microscopy Microanalysis Microstructures, 1992 The concept of Secondary Ion Microscopy, introduced by Castaing et al. [1], is applied to a direct imaging time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer. The ion optical configuration for a particular [2] stigmatic imaging TOF mass spectrometer is reviewed. A number of fundamental factors influencing the mass resolution in any TOF spectrometer are discussed ...

Biological tissue imaging with time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry and cluster ion sources [PDF]
Journal of Mass Spectrometry, 2005 AbstractTime‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS) using liquid metal ion guns (LMIGs) is now sensitive enough to produce molecular‐ion images directly from biological tissue samples. Primary cluster ions strike a spot on the sample to produce a mass spectrum. An image of this sample is achieved by rastering the irradiated point over the

Electrospray propulsion time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry diagnostic
Review of Scientific InstrumentsThe design and capability of a novel electrospray propulsion time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) diagnostic are presented to investigate secondary species emission from surface impingement of energetic molecular ion plumes. Designed on the basis of traditional SIMS principles, this diagnostic provides information on the relative ...
