The ion trap mass spectrum has the functions of MS/MS, can bear higher pressure (such as 0.1 Pa), has the advantages of smaller volume, low cost and the like, and is widely used for detecting drugs, stimulants, anesthetics and explosives. There is a great need for good detection instruments in various fields such as environment, public safety, etc. The invention provides an organic combination of desorption and ionization which can realize high efficiency under the atmospheric pressure on the basis of the requirement.
Workflow of ion trap: the solid and liquid samples are put into a thermal desorption sample injector to be gasified, and the solid and liquid samples are carried by carrier gas to enter an ionization region; ionization is realized by combining with the reaction ions in an ionization region; and then enters an ion trap mass spectrum through a sample injection capillary for detection. The final detection sensitivity is determined by the efficiency of thermal desorption and ionization at atmospheric pressure and the detection performance of the back-end mass spectrum. And the detection performance of the back-end mass spectrum is limited by the performance of the device, so that the device is difficult to significantly improve. How to achieve the efficiency of thermal desorption and ionization at atmospheric pressure is a hotspot of current research.

According to the invention, through reasonable design, the thermal desorption device and the ion photon generation device are tightly combined, so that sample molecules sucked by thermal desorption are fully contacted with ions or photons generated by the ion photon generation device, and high-efficiency ionization is obtained. The disadvantage is that it is aimed at gaseous samples.

And the sample to be tested is heated under a negative pressure state to generate a phase change process, and gaseous sample molecules are carried into an ion mobility spectrometry by carrier gas purged through pulses to carry out ionization and detection. The method is suitable for detecting substances to be detected in solid, liquid or gaseous matrixes, the application range of a sample is enlarged, a complex sample pretreatment process is not needed, the effective sample injection amount of the sample is increased by means of the combination of carrier gas pulse purging, negative pressure sampling and thermal desorption in a sealed sample injection cavity, and the reaction efficiency of the sample is improved. The disadvantage is that the direct transfer losses of the desorption and ionization chambers are severe.
The invention can solve the problem, and can realize the high-efficiency thermal desorption of solid and liquid samples by utilizing a unique structural design; meanwhile, the gasified target molecules can fully react with the reaction ions in space, so that the ionization efficiency is improved, and the sensitivity is improved.
