摘要
A modified particle-beam-type liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry interface has been developed that is designed to be fully compatible with the vacuum requirements of a high-resolution double focusing mass spectrometer. important features include a three-stage momentum separator, a nebulizer that is both ultrasonic and pneumatic, and an in-chamber desolvation heater. The momentum separator provides ion source pressures of (2–3) × 10−6 Torr for most solvents. The nebulizer is capable of handling high liquid chromatography flow rates while being much less sensitive to dispersion gas flow rate than Is a purely pneumatic nebulizer. The in-chamber desolvatlon heater is feedback controlled by downstream gas temperature in order to automatically compensate for changes in solvent encountered during gradient elutlons. © 1990, American Chemical Society.
