The origin of ions in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry is currently a matter of active research. A number of chemical and physical pathways have been suggested for MALDI ion formation, including gas-phase photoionization, ion-molecule reactions, disproportionatio
A series of sodium cluster ions, such as Na+(NaCl),, Na'(HCOONa), and Na+(HCOONa),,(CH,C00Na)n2, were observed in electrospray mass spectrometry. These results support the electrophoretic separation mechanism for excess ions at droplet surface, and the charged residue model for gas phase ion formati
The formation mechanisms of secondary ions from organic targets under MeV ion bombardment were studied with a high-resolution time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer. Promptly formed ions H n + , C n + and C n H + were used for calibrating the TOF scale. Theoretical flight times of other ions were ca
