1 Mass spectrometry What are the principles behind MS? What do all MS instruments have in common? What are the different types of MS? Lecture outline: 1) Introduction to mass spectrometry 2) sample introduction systems, mass analyzers 3) popular combinations in geosciences
2 Introduction to Mass Spectrometry Sample introduction Ionization Separate masses Count ions Minimize collisions, interferences Collect results Nier-type mass spec
3 Basic equations of mass spectrometry mv = zv Ion s kinetic E function of accelerating voltage (V) and charge (z). F = mv 2 / R F = Bzv mv 2 / R = Bzv Centrifugal force Applied magnetic field balance as ion goes through flight tube Combine equations to obtain: 2 2 m/ z = B R /2V Fundamental equation of mass spectrometry Change mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio by changing V or changing B. NOTE: if B, V, z constant, then: r m
4 If: B in gauss r in centimeters m in amu V in volts z in electronic charge then. m z = 4.825x B r V 2 What magnetic field strength would be required to focus a beam of CO 2+ ions on a collector of a mass spectrometer whose analyzer tube as a radius of 31.45cm, assuming a voltage of 1000V? Change your magnetic field strength by -10%, what voltage puts the CO 2 ions into the collector?
5 Examples of mass spec data output Ex: B You can scan in B or V to sweep masses across a single detector. OR You can put different masses into multiple cups without changing B or V.
6 Sample Introduction Systems (aka front ends ) 1) Gas source (lighter elements) dual inlet - sample purified and measured with standard gas at identical conditions precisions ~ ±0.005% continous flow - sample volatized and purified (by EA or GC) and injected into mass spec in He carrier gas, standards measured before and after, precisions ~ % 2) Solid source (heavier elements) TIMS - sample loaded onto Re filament, heated to ~1500 C, precisions ~0.001% laser ablation - sample surface sealed under vacuum, then sputtered with laser precisions ~0.01%? 3) Inductively coupled plasma (all elements, Li to U) ICPMS - sample converted to liquid form, converted to fine aerosol in nebulizer, injected into ~5000K plasma torch
7 Ionization occurs in the source Electron Ionization Gas stream passes through beam of e -, positive ions generated. Thermal Ionization Plasma: Gas stream passes through plasma maintained by RF current and Ar. Themal: Filament heated to ~1500C
8 Mass Analyzers - the quadrupole vs. magnetic sector Quadrupole: Changes DC and RF voltages to isolate a given m/z ion. PRO: cheap, fast, easy Magnetic Sector: Changes B and V to focus a given m/z into detector. PRO: turn in geometry means less dark noise, higher precision
9 Two types of ion detectors A) Faraday collector - long life, stable, for signals > 2-3e6 cps B) Electron multiplier - limited life, linearity issues, high-precision, signals < 2e6 cps
10 Popular combinations Gas source 1) Dual inlet isotope ratio mass spec (at GT, Lynch-Steiglitz and Cobb) - O, C, H ratio analyses 2) Elemental analyzer IRMS (at GT, Montoya) - N, C, S ratio analyses 3) Gas chromatograph IRMS (at GT, Chemistry) - compound-specific ratio analyses Solid source 1) Thermal Ionization mass spec (multi-collector) - heavy metals, REE ICP 1) ICP quadrupole mass spec (at GT, Taillefert) - trace metal analysis Micromass IsoProbe - MC-ICPMS 2) Single collector magnetic sector ICPMS - higher-precision trace metal analysis 2) Multi-collector ICPMS (nearest at USC) - U/Th dating, TIMS replacement
11 Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry high vacuum 10-7 bar detector mass/charge discriminator Shared components of all ICPMS machines sample cone skimmer cone fore vacuum 10-4 bar instrument housing atmospheric pressure
12 1. Quadrupole ICPMS - measure concentrations as low as several ppt - no fuss sample preparation (dissolve in 5% HNO 3 ) - get beam intensity vs. mass/charge ratio or magnetic sector Faraday cup and ion counter (electron multiplier)
13 spray chamber Ar feed torch The torch box of an Agilent 7500 ICPMS RF coil The sample cone isolates the torch from the interior.
14 plasma components ICPMS plasma torch schematic
15 High-resolution ICPMS electrostatic analyzer separates ions by charge 2. High resolution ICPMS aka double-focusing ICPMS aka magnetic sector ICPMS - same front end as Q-ICPMS - combines magnet w electrostatic analyzer magnet separates ion by mass Faraday cup and EM
16 Multi-collector ICPMS 3. MC-ICPMS - same front end as other ICPMS - same magnet and ES as HR-ICPMS - multiple detectors spaced 1amu apart enable simultaneous measurement of many (~7) isotopes -good for what kinds of systems?
17 Low vs. High resolution ICPMS and Interferences 56 Fe very low concentrations in environmental samples, but high interest (why?) Unfortunately, 56 Fe has the same atomic wt as ArO ( 40 Ar+ 16 O) Quadrupole measurement = INTERFERENCE! HR-ICPMS measurement = can distinguish 56 Fe from ArO NOTE: most elements can be distinguished with a low resolution quadrupole
18 The importance of standards in mass spectrometry ICPMS: Can determine concentration to ~1% R.E. using calibration curve (below) Can monitor Sensitivity (signal response for given solution concentration) over time unknown sample = 8.2e 7 cps, conc ~ 10.5ppb
19 REMEMBER: all mass spectrometers are black boxes we really have no idea what goes on from sample container to detector signal Ex: you measure a count-rate of 10,000 cps for a given element, but you need to know how many atoms of that element, or its concentration, were in your sample - measuring isotope ratios is a powerful approach because we can measure samples against standards with known isotopic ratios (it s much more difficult to change a material s isotopic ratios than it is to change its elemental concentration!) - isotope dilution takes advantage of ability to precisely measure ratios - ALL measurements need to include blanks and standards (either concentration or ratio standards)
20 Isotope dilution principle Isotope dilution is an analytical technique used in combination with mass spectrometry to determine the concentration of element x in unknown samples. ex: Rb A known amount of spike with known elemental concentration and isotopic abundances (what s the diff?) is added to sample with unknown elemental concentration but known isotopic abundances. Requirements: 1) The sample has natural (or known) isotopic abundance (usually true). 2) The spike and sample isotopic ratios are different.
21 More Commonly used ICPMS terms Nebulization efficiency the amount of solution that reaches the plasma (~1%) - varies with sample matrix - surface tension, viscosity, and density of solution will affect neb. eff. - usually all standards, spikes, and samples are introduced as 2-5% HNO 3 - an acid solution reduces complexation, surface adsorption Matrix effects the changes in ICP characteristics with variable matrices - largely black box (we see these effects, cannot wholly explain/predict them) - you must carefully match the matrices of your standards/samples to obtain quantitative results Ionization efficiency the amount of ions produced per atoms introduced - depends on matrix, focusing of beam through cones, lenses - usually no better than 1/1000
22 ICP detection limits for a variety of elements ICP-OES ICP-MS Detection limit defined as 3 x the S.D. of the signal as the concentration of the analyte approaches 0 (measure stability at a variety of conc s, extrapolate to 0; or measure 5% HNO 3 blank solution)
23 Perkin Elmer Quadrupole ICPMS Instrument Detection limits, 3σ
24 Ion microprobe (or Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry SIMS) -use an ion beam (usually Cs+1) to sputter a sample surface; secondary ions fed into mass spec 20μm
25 Accelerator Mass Spectrometry The AMS at University of Arizona (3MV) -prior to AMS samples were 14C-dated by counting the number of decays - required large samples and long analysis times -1977: Nelson et al. and Bennett et al. publish papers in Science demonstrating the utility of attaching an accelerator to a conventional mass spectrometer Principle: You cannot quantitatively remove interferring ions to look for one 14C atom among several quadrillion C atoms. Instead, you a) destroy molecular ions (foil or gas) b) filter by the energy of the ions (detector) to separate the needle in the haystack. The AMS at LLNL (10MV)
26 c) ACCELERATOR generates 2.5 million volts, accelerates C - ions b) INJECTOR MAGNET separates ions by mass, masses 12, 13, and 14 injected d) TERMINAL C - ions interact with stripper gas Ar, become C + ions, molecular species CH destroyed e) ELECTROSTATIC DEFLECTOR specific charge of ions selected (3 + ) a) ION SOURCE generates negative carbon ions by Cs sputtering f) MAGNETIC SEPARATION 13C steered into cup, 14C passes through to solid detector g) Si BARRIER DETECTOR pulse produced is proportional to the energy of ion, can differentiate b/t 14C and other ions count rate for modern sample = 100cps
27 Hurdles in mass spectrometry 1) Abundance sensitivity - ratio of signal at mass m to signal at m+1 - better with better vacuum - acceptable values: 1-3ppm at 1amu 2) Mass discrimination - heavier atoms not ionized as efficiently as light atoms - can contribute 1% errors to isotope values - can correct with known (natural) isotope ratios within run, or with known standards between runs
28 Hurdles in mass spectrometry (cont.) 3) Dark Noise - detector will register signal even without an ion beam - no vacuum is perfect and - no detector is perfect - must measure prior to run to get instrument blank if needed 4) Detector gain - what is the relationship between the electronic signal recorded by the detector and the number of ions that it has counted? - usually close to 1 after factory calibration - changes as detector ages - must quantify with standards Cardinal rule of mass spectrometry: Your measurements are only as good as your STANDARDS! Standards (both concentration and isotopic) can be purchased from NIST
29 Ex: NBS-19, O, C carbonate isotopic standard
