Abstract

The production of charged particles by spraying or otherwise disrupting liquid surfaces has been studied for more than a century [1] but only during the past twenty years has ion emission from liquids been used as a source of ions for mass spectrometry. Applications to organic mass spectrometry are of even more recent origin. Several studies have shown that it is possible to extract ions from solution and inject them into a mass spectrometer without significantly increasing their internal energy; as a result, desorption of ions from liquid solutions provides a potentially attractive approach to applying mass spectrometry to large, nonvolatile, or thermally labile compounds not accessible by conventional techniques.
