Problems solved by technology

[0004] In ICP-MS analysis, the problem of low-mass mass spectral interference has been a major constraint, resulting in poor detection limits for many elements and poor precision due to background signal fluctuations
But this kind of protective device for plasma torch with plasma arc and powder particle flow is not suitable for use in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. On the one hand, it cannot completely isolate the plasma from the outside world. The inert gas can also easily cause the inductively coupled plasma to be unable to maintain, causing the ICP torch to go out, and due to the extremely high temperature of the ICP torch, the structure and gas filling angle of the protection device for the plasma arc and powder particle flow used in this plasma spray gun lead to insufficient heat dissipation Well, it is easy to cause damage to the instrument

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an inductively coupled plasma device, in particular to an inductively coupled plasma ion source gas protection device used in an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Background technique [0002] Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is an element and isotope analysis technique developed in the 1980s that uses inductively coupled plasma (ICP) as an ion source and generally uses a quadrupole as a mass analyzer. ICP-MS can perform qualitative analysis, semi-quantitative analysis, quantitative analysis, isotope ratio analysis, and element speciation analysis combined with separation techniques. [0003] The inductively coupled plasma device consists of a plasma torch and an induction coil connected to a high-frequency generator. A plasma torch consisting of three concentric quartz tubes is placed inside the induction coil. When argon gas is introduced, if a high-voltage spark is used to ionize part of th...
