Description

Mass spectrum ion excitation method and device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of mass spectrometry, in particular to a mass spectrometry ion excitation method and a device for implementing the mass spectrometry ion excitation method.
Background
The matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI TOF MS) is a crystal formed by mixing a sample to be detected and a matrix, sample ions are generated under pulse laser bombardment, the flight time of ions with large mass-to-charge ratio is long, the flight time of ions with small mass-to-charge ratio is short under the action of the same accelerating electric field and a field-free flight area, and the accurate detection of the molecular mass of the sample is realized by detecting the difference of arrival detection time of the sample.
The core of the matrix-assisted laser desorption technology is matrix and laser, and the sample detection is different, and the adopted matrix and laser spectrum are different, for example, the absorption wavelength of matrix nicotinic acid (Nicotinic Acid) is 266nm, the absorption wavelength of sinapic acid (dihydroxybenzoic acid, DHB) is 337nm, and the like. The laser sources used in MALDI instruments are mainly classified into ultraviolet and infrared lasers according to the wavelength, wherein infrared lasers are mainly used in early research work, but most MALDI instruments use ultraviolet lasers mainly, such as 193nm, 248nm, 266nm, 308nm, 337nm, 355nm, and the like. At present, the bombardment light spot focusing of the MALDI laser light source is mainly a transmission light path, only a single-band pulse laser light source can be adopted, and other bands or lasers with similar bands are adopted, so that the existing chromatic aberration influences the excitation power of ions, and even the ion cannot be used.
In addition, the sample generates ion cloud when being bombarded by laser, has a certain initial speed, the speed and the direction are directly related to the incident angle of the laser, and the initial speed dispersion degree can greatly influence the sensitivity and the resolution of the instrument. As shown in fig. 1, the incident direction of the laser light is opposite to the ion excitation generation direction, and the incident angle thereof affects the shape of the sample recess and the ion generation direction, i.e., the "shadow effect". Therefore, as the laser incident angle is smaller, ion dispersion of ions on the ion optical axis is smaller, and thus performance of ion detection is also better.
The existing mass spectrometer generally adopts a single specific laser spectrum as a bombardment light source, can not switch the laser spectrum, and can only realize certain application defects and use cost of partial functions. Aiming at the continuous improvement of detection resolution and sensitivity indexes of application requirements, the problem of large ion initial speed dispersion influenced by laser tilt bombardment needs to be controlled, but the current related instrument manufacturers do much work in reducing the tilt angle, but still cannot solve the problem of vertical incidence.

When an element is referred to as being "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or intervening elements may also be present. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and the like are used herein for illustrative purposes only.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and/or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
As shown in fig. 2 and fig. 6-9, the mass spectrometry ion excitation method of the present invention comprises the following steps:
laser incidence: the laser emits laser 90, the laser 90 is any one of multi-spectrum laser, an included angle is formed between the incidence direction of the laser 90 and the vertical direction, and the laser 90 is emitted into the vacuum chamber;
Laser reflection: the laser 90 irradiates the reflecting surface 322 of the reflecting mirror 32, is reflected and focused on the sample of the repulsive electrode 80, the reflecting surface 322 is a paraboloid or an ellipsoid, and the direction of the reflected laser 90 is perpendicular to the sample mounting surface formed by the repulsive electrode 80 so that the laser 90 is perpendicularly incident to the sample and the substrate;
Ion beam generation: after the sample is bombarded by the vertical laser 90, an ion beam is generated in a reverse vertical direction, the repulsive electrode 80 provides a high voltage for initial kinetic energy modulation of the ions, the accelerating electrode 70 provides a high voltage for accelerated flight of the ions, and the ion beam flies out through the ion channel 321 on the reflecting surface 322.
In particular, because the substrates used are different when the samples are different, it is desirable to correspond to different laser spectra. Therefore, in the laser incidence step, the laser can emit laser light, and when the laser is specifically used, the laser light with the corresponding spectrum is adopted according to the type of the substrate. Because the reflection of mirror 32 is used to redirect laser light 90, the focus is not altered when using laser light of different spectral ranges, and thus laser light 90 is accurately focused on the sample and substrate. The problem that in the prior art, the laser cannot be focused on a sample target point due to the fact that the direction of the laser is changed by adopting a refraction and transmission system and the focus is changed due to chromatic aberration of a laser spectrum is solved. In the present embodiment, the incident direction of the laser light 90 is the horizontal direction. When the reflecting surface 322 is an ellipsoid, the laser light 90 emitted from the laser is a spot. When the reflecting surface 322 is parabolic, the laser light 90 from the laser is modulated into collimated light that is parallel.
Specifically, in the laser reflection step, based on the principle that a reflector does not have chromatic aberration, a single off-axis aspheric reflector is adopted, so that the pulse laser with multiple laser wavelengths can be switched freely. Firstly, the reflecting mirror 32 can be applied to any spectrum range (for example, the DUV hard aluminum film and the UV hard aluminum film can cover 190 nm-700 nm spectrum), and the focusing of laser bombardment light spots can be realized by adopting the same laser focusing optical system when lasers with different wave bands are used by combining the principle that the reflecting mirror has no chromatic aberration. In the prior art, when a single lens refraction system is adopted, the focus of a focusing light spot can change to a certain extent in different laser wave bands, and the focusing effect and the ion excitation efficiency are affected; while achromatic problems can be solved with an achromatic lens refractive system, the transmissivity of the lens is greatly reduced with multiple groups, and multiple groups of lenses cannot be arranged in space size. Meanwhile, the refractive system is limited by the transmittance and refractive index of materials in different spectral ranges, the selection is relatively less, and the reflective imaging system has a simple structure, is easy to process and manufacture, and is easy to expand to a large caliber size. Therefore, the application adopts off-axis aspheric mirror technology, and can realize free switching of pulse lasers with multiple laser wavelengths without adjusting an optical system in a vacuum cavity. In particular, the reflective surface 322 of the off-axis aspherical mirror is parabolic or elliptical.
Specifically, in the ion beam generation step, the laser 90 is perpendicularly incident, so that the irradiation area of the laser can be effectively reduced, and higher energy utilization efficiency is realized. Under normal incidence, the laser beam is able to interact more directly and more efficiently with the sample and the substrate, reducing the loss of energy during transmission. This helps to excite more ions and thus improve the sensitivity and resolution of mass spectrometry. Second, the normal incidence approach helps to reduce thermal damage to the sample. The laser beam is incident perpendicular to the surface of the sample, so that the sample is heated more uniformly, and the sample is prevented from being decomposed or disintegrated due to local overheating. This helps to maintain sample integrity and improves the accuracy of the analysis.

To increase the resolution of the instrument, the repulsive electric field 80 and the accelerating electric field 70 have field strengths on the order of kV/mm.
With continued reference to fig. 6 and 9, when the reflecting surface 322 is a paraboloid, the parabolic equation of the paraboloid is determined by the radius of the aperture of the laser and the focal position of the ion lens 60. Specifically, the focal point of the ion lens 60 is located on a parabola, the focal point coordinate of the ion lens 60 is (x ion ,yion), the focal point coordinate of the ion lens 60 is known, the intersection points of the upper and lower edges of the parallel laser 90 and the parabola are respectively A2 and A1, the A2 coordinate is (x 2 ,y2), the A1 coordinate is (x 1 ,y1), then y 2- y1 =r, r is the radius of the light transmission hole of the laser, and r is a known quantity; (x 1+x2)/2= xion).
