Abstract:
Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) utilizes the difference in ion mobility K (collision cross section) to realize the separation and determination of different ions, which has the advantages of fast analysis speed and high sensitivity. And it coupling with mass spectrometry (IM-MS) was widely used in the fields of proteomics, metabolomics, medicine, etc. With the increasing complexity of the analyzed objects, higher demands are put on the resolution of the IMS. Traveling wave ion mobility spectrometry (TWIMS) uses a time-domain continuous traveling wave electric field to realize ion transport and separation. The analytical path length of the TWIMS is not limited by the amplitude of the travelling wave voltage, theoretically the path can be extended indefinitely to improve the resolution. Currently, the resolution of TWIMS can reach up to 1 860, which is advantageous for the analysis of complex samples with the multiple isomers. The principle of TWIMS and the influencing factors of resolution were introduced, the characteristics, performance and applications of TWIMS instruments with different structures were further discussed, and finally the future development directions of TWIMS were prospected.

Abstract:
The in situ, micro-area and high-resolution spatial distribution characteristics of elements in the samples are of practical and important research significance. In biological samples, the in situ spatial distribution characteristics of elements can be used as indicators of physiological processes, reveal metabolic pathways, and reflect the ways in which environmental characteristics affect organisms. In geological samples, the in situ spatial distribution characteristics of elements can be used as a basis for mineral evaluation and an important indicator for studying the process of environmental geochemical changes. At present, several commonly used techniques for measuring the in situ distribution characteristics of elements in micro-areas include: micro X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (μXRF), synchrotron radiation technology (SR), electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectrometry (EM-EDS), electron probe technology (EP), laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), laser induced breakdown plasma emission spectroscopy (LIBS), etc. Based on the principle of testing samples, these technologies differ in many aspects such as non-destructive testing, quantitative testing, suitable sample type and size, complexity of pre-treatment methods, detection limits and resolution, and so on. The current mainstream of the micro-area in situ element distribution detection techniques were introduced and summarized, the advantages and disadvantages of various techniques and their applicable sample types and application ranges were analyzed and compared. The selection of standard samples, data calibration and processing and visualization into maps were discussed for the first time, which provides a technical reference for related scientific research and analysis work.

Abstract(16) HTML (8) PDF(0)
Abstract:
The Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) is difficult to achieve good results in industrial field applications due to the limitations of its own volume, weight, and shock resistance. On the basis of fully utilizing the respective optical characteristics of the cube-corner mirror and the planar mirror, a self-compensating double-pendulum interferometer was designed to solve the problem of the stability of the interferometer. Through the electrical analysis and modeling of the scanning mechanism, the relationship between the controller and the scanning speed was established, and the corresponding control algorithm was realized by using high-speed digital signal processing (DSP) technology, which can control the speed error in the range of ±0.2%. The test of the instrument performance and the test of the standard sample showed that the instrument has a high signal-to-noise ratio and stability, which can meet the needs of industrial applications.

WAN Peng, CAI Rui, LI Yong, MENG Xiangyu, ZHOU Yumeng, GAO Xiaoxia, XU Qiang, YAN Su
2023, 29(3): 313-320. doi: 10.16495/j.1006-3757.2023.03.011
Abstract(6) HTML (3) PDF(0)
Abstract:
When the fluorescent samples were analyzed using a windowed X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) equipped with a scanning electron microscope, due to the excitation of the electron beam, the stimulated fluorescence by sample stimulation will seriously interfere with the analysis of the characteristic X-rays by the EDS energy spectroscopy probe, which leads to qualitative and quantitative difficulties. The new windowless EDS combined with the method of single particle small region acquisition can successfully achieve normal EDS spectral analysis of fluorescent samples because of its excellent low-energy-end signal acquisition and analysis capability. Without the adsorption of the traditional ultra-thin window, the windowless EDS can analyze lithium metal. By optimizing the accelerating voltage and the protective effect of the passivation film on the sample surface, the interference of background noise and sample contamination were overcome, and the detection of elemental lithium was successfully realized.

Abstract(9) HTML (2) PDF(2)
Abstract:
In order to improve the reliability of detection data of cadmium and lead elements in rice, the content of cadmium and lead in rice were detected according to GB 5009.12—2017 "Determination of Lead in Food" and GB 5009.15—2014 "Determination of Cadmium in Food", and the various error analysis were carried out for the measuring system analysis (MSA) with the atomic absorption spectrophotometer as measuring equipment. The results showed that the Xbar control charts in the stability analysis of two elements have points beyond the upper and lower control limits, and the stability did not meet the requirements. The bias and linear P values were greater than 0.05, which meant that there were no significant bias and linear error. The results of Reproducibility & Repeatability (R&R) were 54.03% and 36.38%, respectively, both greater than 30%, and the measurement errors were beyond the acceptable range. The stability reached the statistical controlled state after the fault investigation of human, machine, material, method, environment, measurement and other aspects, and the R&R were reduced to 9.66% and 8.95%, respectively, both less than 10%, the measurement system was acceptable. The use of MSA method to reduce various types of measurement errors from many aspects, can effectively guarantee the reliability of the detection data of cadmium and lead contents in rice.
