The invention aims to provide an
ion source for
mass spectrum in-situ
ionization, which is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of
mass spectrum and comprises an
ionization cavity, a grooving needle, a capillary spray needle fixed in the
ionization cavity, a
liquid phase pump for supplying liquid to the capillary spray needle and a
laser heating source. The method comprises the following steps: dipping 0.5-1 [mu] L of a sample solution into a grooving needle, heating the grooving needle to evaporate the sample solution in a grooving groove to
dryness to obtain sample dry residues, extending the grooving needle into an
ion source at a distance of 05-20 mm from an inlet of a
mass spectrometer, conveying
methanol,
acetonitrile, water or other spray liquid to a capillary spray needle by a
liquid phase pump at a speed of 10-200 [mu] L / min, and simultaneously applying 2-6 KV
high voltage to the capillary spray needle to atomize the spray liquid, a grooving part of the grooving needle is connected with a ground wire,
fog is gathered to the grooving part to wet sample dry residues, then direct-current
high voltage of the flat spraying capillary tube and the grooving needle are disconnected at the same time, then direct-current
high voltage of 3-7 KV is applied to the grooving needle,
aerosol generated by human analysis is excited by discharging of the grooving needle to generate ions, and the ions are removed; and the mass
spectrometer inlet potential collects the generated ions into the mass
spectrometer for separation and determination so as to generate a
mass spectrum signal. The
ion source has the sensitivity and stability of a common
chemical ionization ion source under
atmospheric pressure, and can be used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of
mass spectrum.
