Enhanced surface sensitivity in secondary ion mass spectrometric analysis of organic thin films using size‐selected Ar gas‐cluster ion projectiles

A size‐selected argon (Ar) gas‐cluster ion beam (GCIB) was applied to the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) of a 1,4‐didodecylbenzene (DDB) thin film. The samples were also analyzed by SIMS using an atomic Ar⁺ ion projectile and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Compared with those in the atomic‐Ar⁺ SIMS spectrum, the fragment species, including siloxane contaminants present on the sample surface, were enhanced several hundred times in the Ar gas‐cluster SIMS spectrum. XPS spectra during beam irradiation indicate that the Ar GCIB sputters contaminants on the surface more effectively than the atomic Ar⁺ ion beam. These results indicate that a large gas‐cluster projectile can sputter a much shallower volume of organic material than small projectiles, resulting in an extremely surface‐sensitive analysis of organic thin films.

Molecular Beam Studies on the Laser-Enhanced Surface Reaction of GaAs(100) with Chlorine

A cw supersonic Cl₂ molecular beam coupled with an angle-resolved time-of-flight (TOF) technique has been used to investigate the laser-enhanced surface reaction of GaAs(100) with chlorine. The mass and velocity distributions of the major reaction products under 1064 nm laser irradiation have been measured as a function of laser fluence, detection angle, surface temperature and normal component of the translational energy of the incident chlorine molecules. It has been found that increasing both laser fluence and the translational energy of incident chlorine molecules markedly enhance mis surface reaction. The measured flux angular distributions of major reaction products can be fit satisfactorily with a bi-cosine function. Measurements of the mass and angular distributions of reaction products by a modulated molecular beam mass spectrometry show that the surface temperature effect is obvious for the Cl₂/GaAs(100) “dark” thermal reaction. A direct activated dissociative chemisorption is proposed for the mechanism of Cl₂ chemisorption on the GaAs(100) surface.     

Renaissance of gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Meeting the challenge of capillary columns with a beam deflection instrument and time array detection

This report describes the use of a unique beam deflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer to address some of the demands made on mass spectrometry by new developments in high-resolution capillary column gas chromatography. An integrating transient recorder is used in combination with this beam deflection time-of-flight instrument to apply the concept of time array detection in capturing all of the mass spectral information available from the ion source, thereby greatly enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio quality of the mass spectral data. The applicability of the time array detection approach to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is demonstrated in the context of an analysis of the standard Grob mixture for assessing performance of capillary column chromatography. During analysis of the Grob mixture by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, mass spectra were recorded at a rate of 20 scan files per second. The data indicate that this rate of mass spectral scan file generation is adequate to provide a suitable data base for reconstruction of the chromatographic profile. In addition, the effective scan rate is high enough that there is no distortion in the relative peak intensities throughout the individual mass spectra of components regardless of the relatively high dynamic changes in partial pressure of the analyte as reflected by the sharp peaks in the chromatographic profile. The experimental results indicate that the beam deflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer can provide mass spectra at a scan file generation rate much higher than that possible with the conventional quadrupole or magnetic sector mass spectrometer, but at comparable detection limits.     

Electron impact mass spectrometry of alkanes in supersonic molecular beams

The electron impact mass spectrometry of straight chain alkanes C₈H₁₈-C₄₀H₈₂, squalane, methylstearate, 1-chlorohexadecane, 1-bromohexadecane, and dioctylphthalate was studied by sampling them with supersonic molecular beams. A fly-through Brink-type electron impact ion source was used, utilizing a vacuum background ion filtration technique based on differences between the kinetic energy of the supersonic beam species and that of thermal molecules. The 70-eV electron impact mass spectra of all the alkanes were characterized by a pronounced or dominant molecular weight peak together with all the fragment ions normally exhibited by the standard thermal 70-eV EI mass spectra. In contrast, the NIST library of most of these molecules did not show any molecular weight peak. By eliminating tile intramolecular thermal vibrational energy we gained control over the degree of molecular ion fragmentation by the electron energy. At an electron energy of 18 eV the molecular ion dissociation was further reduced considerably, with only a small absolute reduction in the peak height by less than a factor of 2. The effect of vibrational cooling increased with the molecular size and number of atoms. Pronounced differences were observed between the mass spectra of the straight chain triacontane and its branched isomer squalane. Similar mass spectra of octacosane (C₂₈H₅₈) achieved with 70-eV EI in a supersonic molecular beam were obtained with a magnetic sector mass spectrometer by using an electron energy of 14 eV and an ion source temperature of 150 °C. However, this ion source temperature precluded the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of octacosane. The GC-MS of alkanes was studied with an ion trap gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer at an ion source temperature of 230 °C. Thermal peak tailing was observed for C₂₀H₄₂ and heavier alkanes, whereas for C₂₈H₅₈ and heavier alkanes the severe peak tailing made quantitative GC-MS impractical. In contrast, no peak tailing existed even with C₄₀H₈₂ for GC-MS in supersonic molecular beams. The minimum detected amount of eicosane (C₂₀, H₄₂) was shown to be 60 fg. This was demonstrated by using single ion monitoring with the quadrupole mass analyzer tuned to the molecular weight peak of 282 u. The coupling of electron impact mass spectrometry in supersonic molecular beams with hyperthermal surface ionization and a fast GC-MS inlet is briefly discussed.     

Degradation of prednisone in aqueous solutions by electron beam irradiation

A novel degradation study of prednisone (PRE) in aqueous systems (10 mg L^?1) was performed under electron beam irradiation (EBI) in various conditions. The data demonstrate that the highest degradation caused by EBI was obtained with the oxidation of hydroxyl radicals. The proper amount of hydrogen peroxide could increase the PRE total carbon content removal rate. Nine degradation products of PRE in aqueous solution were preliminarily analyzed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography in combination with mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the chemical analysis and possible degradation pathway were proposed with the assistance of theoretical calculation results by density functional theory.     

Low-energy electrons and X-ray irradiation effects on plasma-polymerized allylamine bioactive coatings for stents

Radiation used in biomedical applications causes chemical changes to biomedical materials. This work is an ex situ simulation of the influence of low-energy electron (LEE) impact and X-ray irradiation on the chemical properties of plasma-polymerized allylamine (PPA) bioactive and biocompatible stent coatings. Preliminary X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results show that PPA coatings oxidize in contact with ambient air by the detection of C-O and CO bonds which are typical of polymer oxidation. Chemical changes after LEE and X-ray irradiation are mainly a loss of oxygen, assuming a surface deoxidizing and not a complete destruction of the surface. XPS survey analyses show that the amine groups remain stable during irradiation. LEE impact measurements by TOF mass spectrometry show that the main ionic losses are H⁻ ions. It appears that CN groups are stable under irradiation and we observe a loss of hydrogen and oxygen as the main chemical modifications. In conclusion, these results suggest that PPA coatings are stable under biomedical radiation, and they can therefore be used for bioactive and biocompatible stent coatings.

Furthermore the in situ building of some azides and alkynes and the influence of the used metal species was investigated.     

Application of time-of-flight mass spectrometry to the analysis of phototransformation products of diclofenac in water under natural sunlight

Exact mass capabilities of time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry along with other mass spectrometric techniques have been evaluated to elucidate a complete range of dichlofenac phototransformation products. Photolysis experiments with diclofenac in water under direct solar irradiation were performed to characterise the main phototransformation products generated and to determine their stability. Photolysis experiments were performed in both demineralised water and reconstructed standard freshwater. Samples were extracted before analysis by solid phase extraction (SPE) with Oasis HLB and MAX cartridges. Separation and identification of the transformation products were accomplished by the combined use of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC/TOFMS). Both techniques provided complementary information that enabled the identification of 13 phototransformation products. Six of them were identified by GC/MS through the structural information provided by the full scan mass spectra obtained under electron impact (EI) ionisation and the confirmation of the molecular mass provided by positive chemical ionisation (PCI) analyses. Accurate mass measurements obtained by LC/TOFMS provided the elucidation of seven polar transformation products. The low mass error observed (<2 ppm) enabled the assignment of highly probable empirical formulas as well as identification of a process dimerisation route. The photoproducts identified demonstrated that photolysis of diclofenac occurs by two main routes. One is the consequence of the initial photocyclisation of diclofenac into carbazole derivatives. The other route goes through the initial decarboxilation of diclofenac and further oxidation of the alkyl-chain, which are typical photolytic process reactions. The main photoproduct identified was 8-chloro-9H-carbazole-1yl-acetic acid.     

Generation of clean iron nanocrystals on an ultra-thin SiO(x) film on Si(001)

Upon exposure to Fe(CO)(5), the formation of pure cubic Fe nanocrystals with dimensions up to ~75 nm is reported on ultra-thin SiO(x) films (thickness ≈ 0.5 nm) on Si(001), which have been prepared in situ under UHV conditions. The active centers for initial decomposition of Fe(CO)(5) resulting in the growth of the Fe clusters are proposed to be SiO sites. After nucleation at these sites, further crystal growth is observed due to autocatalytic dissociation of Fe(CO)(5) at room temperature. The density of the Fe clusters can be increased by irradiating the surface with a focused electron beam (15 keV) prior to gas exposure. The formation of the active SiO sites upon electron irradiation is attributed to oxygen desorption via the Knotek-Feibelman mechanism.
