Georgia Tech Research Assigned Patent
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 27 -- Georgia Tech Research, Atlanta, has been assigned a patent (8,101,923) developed by Thomas Michael Orlando, Atlanta, and Joshua Milbourne Symonds, Maplewood, N.J., for a "system and method for spatially-resolved chemical analysis using microplasma desorption and ionization of a sample."
The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: "A method and system for desorbing and ionizing molecules from a sample for mass spectrometry using a microplasma device is disclosed. The system and method relies upon a microplasma device, or array of such devices, to partially ionize a gas to form a microplasma. The ionized gas can be a mixture of a noble gas, such as neon or argon, and hydrogen (H.sub.2). The ionized gas can form a effluent stream directed onto the surface of a sample to desorb molecules from the remainder of the sample. The desorbed molecules can be ionized by the effluent stream as they leave the surface of the sample. The ionization process can include: photoionization, penning ionization, chemical ionization (proton transfer), and electron impact ionization. The ionized particles from the sample can be directed to a mass spectrometer for analysis. This can produce spatially-resolved mass spectral data, and can be conducted concurrently with another imaging system, such as a microscope."
