Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of GDMS testing technology, and specifically relates to an insulating ring. Background Technology
[0002] GDMS testing typically refers to glow discharge mass spectrometry. Glow discharge mass spectrometry is a highly sensitive analytical technique used to analyze trace elements and impurities in solid materials. When the device performs a glow discharge, argon ions are generated and bombard the sample surface. Most of the bombarded sample is sputtered out in atomic form. When these atoms encounter metastable argon atoms, the Penning effect occurs, causing the sample atoms to absorb energy and ionize. This results in the generation of neutral plasma in the insulating region between the cathode and anode.
[0003] The insulating rings in the existing technology are generally aluminum nitride insulating rings. However, when testing high-purity silicon and high-purity silicon carbide, the test results for elements such as sodium, aluminum, and calcium are not good, and the background is quite obvious. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to propose an insulating ring that solves the problem of poor testing results and obvious background in the testing of elements such as sodium, aluminum, and calcium when testing high-purity silicon and high-purity silicon carbide.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides an insulating ring, including an insulating ring body, wherein the insulating ring body is made of silicon nitride.
[0006] Preferably, the shape of the insulating ring body is either circular or rectangular.
[0007] Preferably, when the shape of the insulating ring body is rectangular, the ratio of the length of the long side to the short side of the insulating ring body is in the range of 1:1 to 1:2.
[0008] Preferably, the four corners of the insulating ring body are rounded.
[0009] Preferably, the ratio of the radius of the rounded corner to the length of the short side of the insulating ring body is in the range of 1:5 to 1:4.
[0010] Preferably, the insulating ring body has a central hole inside.
[0011] Preferably, the central hole is located at the center of the insulating ring body.
[0012] Preferably, the ratio of the diameter of the central hole to the length of the short side of the insulating ring body is in the range of 1:4 to 1:2.
[0013] Preferably, the thickness of the insulating ring is in the range of 0.5mm-1mm.
[0014] Preferably, the insulating ring body is disposed between the cathode and anode of the GDMS sheet sample cell.
[0015] Beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This utility model provides an insulating ring. Using silicon nitride as the insulating material of the insulating ring can effectively reduce the background of elements such as sodium, aluminum, and calcium while ensuring the accuracy of elemental testing. Attached Figure Description
