ANALYTICAL MASS SPECTROMETRY WITH A SELECTIVE VACUUM ULTRAVIOLET PHOTOIONIZATION SOURCE.HUTH, THOMAS CARL. January 1986 (has links)
The vacuum ultraviolet molecular hydrogen laser is evaluated as a selective ion source for analytical mass spectrometry of easily-ionized compounds. The types of compounds ionized below the photon energy of 7.8 eV include polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, and many amines and nitrogen-containing heterocycles. The latter two categories encompass a large number of pharmaceuticals and drugs of abuse. H₂ laser photoionization produces parent molecular ions only, for all compounds studied thus far. Selectivity of the threshold photoionization process is very high, as compounds within as little as 0.2 eV above the threshold are completely rejected. The ability of the technique to discriminate against interfering matrix components is demonstrated for both simple synthetic and complex "real world" mixtures. Easily interpreted spectra are obtained from simple extracts of spiked coffee, beer, soy sauce, urine and blood serum. The most important interference is shown to be electron impact ionization arising from acceleration of stray electrons in the ion source. Most of this ionization is caused by low-energy secondaries generated when stray primaries are collected by the ion source electrodes. The primaries are produced mainly by interaction of scattered laser radiation with metal surfaces. This interference can be controlled through proper instrumental design.

Vacuum ultraviolet discharge excited lasersRichmond, A. M. January 1987 (has links)
The thesis concerns experimental studies of discharge excited lasers operating in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) region of the spectrum. The known molecular fluorine laser operating at 157nm, on a bound- to-bound transition of the F<sub>2</sub> molecule was selected for initial study. As a result of the work reported here the energy per pulse was increased by a factor of five (10mJ to 50mJ) from that of earlier F<sub>2</sub> lasers. Similary the working lifetime of the gas mixture was increased from a few shots to several thousand by the application of cryogenic gas purification techniques. These improvements have resulted in the development of a practical commercial F<sub>2</sub> laser. The performance characteristics of the fluorine laser and their relationship to the physical mechanisms are discussed. With the objective of achieving laser action in the 110 to 130nm region of the VUV a novel scheme is investigated. The scheme involves the production of a population inversion between the v'=1 level of the b<sup>1</sup>π<sub>u</sub> state of molecular nitrogen and high lying levels of the X<sup>1</sup>Σ<sub>g</sub> ground state. The excitation of the upper laser level involves production of N<sub>2</sub> molecules in the a<sup>1</sup>π<sub>g</sub> state by means of a pulsed discharge. Transfer of population from this intermediate 'a' state to the upper level is accomplished by absorption of radiation at 308nm from a discharge excited xenon chloride laser. The practicality of this scheme has been investigated to the extent that populations of the order of 10<sup>13</sup> molecules per cm<sup>3</sup> have been produced in the 'a' state and laser induced fluorescence on the 'b' to 'X' band has been observed. Under the conditions of "the present experiments the potential VUV gain is too small (10<sup>-4</sup>cm<sup>-1>/sup>) to reach laser threshold. The problems of increasing the gain to reach threshold for a practical device are discussed.
