Rapid analysis of explosives on surfaces using new LDTD ion source
9 Oct 2024When introducing a new explosives analysis device as part of aviation security, it is essential to have an analysis time of less than one minute and the ability to detect quantities of less than one milligram on the sampled surfaces. The Axino Ion Source is the new generation of sample introduction and ionization source based on laser diode thermal desorption (LDTD) technology for mass spectrometry. Explore the parameters of this new LDTD ion source for the analysis of explosives, and discover how its laser diode allows it to obtain unmatchable thermal uniformity giving more precision, accuracy and speed.
