Neptune Plus™ High Resolution Multicollector ICP-MS
Meet the ever-expanding application demands of earth sciences, nuclear sciences and other fields requiring high-precision isotope ratio measurements with the Thermo Scientific™ Neptune Plus™ high resolution multicollector ICP-MS system. The Neptune Plus system combines field-proven technology with the latest innovations. This powerful double-focusing mass spectrometer, with high mass resolution, variable multicollectors, and multi ion counting capability, offers ground-breaking sensitivity, high dynamic ranges, unsurpassed linearity, and robust stability.
Jet Interface for Ultimate Sensitivity
The jet interface increases sensitivity 10-20 times across the entire mass range in desolvation mode.
High-Resolution Double-Focusing Analyzer
ICP interface improves resolution, reducing the initial kinetic energy spread by capacitively decoupling the plasma from the load coil
Double-focusing mass analyzer focuses both ion energy and angular divergence for superior mass resolution
Independent source and detector slit settings enhance mass resolution by separating molecular interferences from elemental peaks
Wide detector slit in all resolutions guarantees the widest peak flatness at high resolving powers, a prerequisite for highly precise and accurate isotope ratio analyses
Low, medium and high resolution settings can be selected with a single mouse click
Fully Flexible Detection System
High-performance Faraday cups are laser machined from solid carbon to guarantee uniform response, high linearity, low noise, and long lifetimes; they completely eliminate the need for cup factors
Tera-Ohm feedback resistors improve signal-to-noise ratios two to three fold
Up to 10 current amplifiers with independent gains can be installed simultaneously
Software control of the amplifier/Faraday cup connections allows amplifier configuration to be configured to the needs of each experiment and its required precision
Available retarding potential quadrupole (RPQ) lenses improve abundance sensitivity by one order of magnitude to <500 ppb
Multi-ion counting (MIC) arrays of discrete-dynode electron multipliers provide ultimate detection efficiency for small sample amounts
Up to eight discrete dynode electron multipliers can be installed at one time
Sophisticated Software Control
Software allows a fully automated plasma-ignition sequence
Cup configuration editor is used to define cup configurations
Method editor enables the user to set up measurement procedures, including static, multidynamic, and fast single-collector peak jumping strategies
On-line and off-line data evaluation packages are available, including statistical capabilities and display of the results in spreadsheet or graphical form
Users have access to all raw data and can monitor the results online during the analysis. The software allows data to be evaluated and flexibly exported; ideal for laser ablation applications.
Sequence editor provides automatic, unattended acquisition and evaluation of samples including sample/standard bracketing and blank subtraction
Triggering of, or triggering from coupled devices, e.g. from a laser system, is fully supported
Automated report generation of analytical results is included
Scripting based on the C programming language allows modification of supplied procedures.
For GC and HPLC applications, additional software package dedicated to the evaluation of transient signals are available
