✦ Synopsis


A progressive upgrading of the data processing techniques for monitoring the temporal behaviour of fast transient reactions using time-of-flight mass spectrometry has been carried out at Salford over the past three decades. The earlier work was focused on the development of sophisticated signal processing techniques. Recently, computerization, using an advanced digitizing oscilloscope, has significantly simplified the signal processing system. Software, developed in-house, is able to provide more reliable and comprehensive information on fast transient reactions than was previously the case.

A novel tandem time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer has been developed for studying the photo-induced dissociation of large molecules and elemental clusters. It consists of a linear first stage TOF analyser for primary mass separation and precursor ion selection, and a second orthogonal reflecting

## Abstract Two conjugated polymers (CPs), poly(9,9‐dioctylfluorene) (PF) and poly(3‐octylthiophene) (PT) were analyzed by direct laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (LDI‐ToF MS). Because of their strong absorption near the wavelength of the laser (337 nm), easy and transie

We have developed a method for constructing and extracting matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) fingerprints. This method is fully automated and statistically based, allowing a large number of spectra to be analyzed at a time in an objective manner. This method can be used to extract

In this paper, the time resolution for kinetic studies of reactions with mass spectrometric detection is characterized in detail, and it is shown how this allows faster kinetic processes to be determined. The time-resolved technique used pulsed laser photolysis to initiate reaction and a time-of-fli
