The invention discloses a non-contact direct-current induction
electrospray ionization device and method. The device comprises an
electrode, a high-
voltage direct-current power supply and a spray head of a nanoliter electric
sprayer. The spray head of the nanoliter electric
sprayer and the axis of the long and straight wire
electrode are in the same straight line. The spray head is located between the
electrode and a
mass spectrum sample inlet.
Electric field lines generated by the tip of the electrode under the excitation of a
high voltage penetrate through a conical liquid dialectic before being gathered, so that the intensity of an
electric field at the tip of the spray head is greatly enhanced, and liquid to be measured is subjected to
electrospray ionization. By means of the non-contact direct-current induction
electrospray ionization device and method, the problem that an existing nanoliter electric
sprayer can not achieve direct ionization of several samples at the nanoliter grade is solved; meanwhile, the non-contact direct-current induction
electrospray ionization device and method can be used for array analysis of the nanoliter electric sprayer. The device is simple in structure, convenient to manufacture and capable of being obtained just by conducting a simple mechanical improvement on the basis of an
ion source of a traditional nanoliter electric sprayer; the device can be coupled with an existing commercial
mass spectrum instrument, so that the practicability is high; moreover, a lot of problems existing in traditional nanoliter electric sprayers are solved, and the device has wide application prospect and high economic value.
