Journal ArticleDOI
Electrohydrodynamic Ion Source
TL;DR: In this paper, an electrohydrodynamic (EHD) technique is used to generate ions from liquid metals, where liquid metal is fed to the tip of a needle emitter with a voltage difference applied between the emitter and an extractor electrode to produce an intense electric field at the liquid surface.

Electrohydrodynamic spraying to produce ultrafine particles
TL;DR: In this paper, a beam of positively charged droplets is generated by an electric field and then cooled by radiative heat transfer to a low pressure gas by free molecular heat conductivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shock wave model for sputtering biomolecules using massive cluster impacts
TL;DR: A shock wave model is proposed to explain certain features of recently reported spectra obtained by massive duster impact (MCI) mass spectrometry, and it is suggested that clusters that impact glycerol matrices with energies/nucleon in the range 0.01 eV/u < E/N < 1.0 ev/u provide an extremely soft method for sputtering intact biomolecules.
Patent
Method and apparatus for making submicrom powders
TL;DR: In this paper, a consumable electrode having a rod or wire configuration, melting the tip of the electrode by means of electron bombardment, and applying an intense electric field to the molten tip to generate a beam of charged droplets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capillaritron: A new, versatile ion source
TL;DR: The Capillaritron is an ion source consisting of a very fine bore capillary and a concentric accelerating electrode as discussed by the authors, which is capable of operating with any gas.
