Sample introduction: Laser ablation
|
|
Exceptional Laser Ablation Laser Ablation - Inductively Coupled Plasma - Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is an analytical technique for determining the chemical and isotopic composition of solid samples, especially prominent in the fields of geology and petrology, but also materials science and increasingly, due to its imaging capability, the life sciences. The RESOlution laser ablation systems are the only LA-ICP-MS platform to offer the industry leading Laurin Technic sample cells and pioneering Geostar µGISTM software for exceptional ablation. They are in use with all mass spectrometers supplied by leading ICP-MS manufacturers. Features:
- High Quality & Robust Design
- Ultra-fast washout times
- Outstanding signal sensitivity
- Highly uniform signal across the entire cell
- Minimal fractionation
- Completely automated instrument control
- Integrated on-sample fluence calibration and laser energy management
- Visual-Stage-Correction offers sub-micron positioning
- Import images from any source, such as an SEM or petrographic microscope
