Dear Dr Norris, Do you think you're letting the side down by being on the Q&A program after not even bothering to submit an abstract?
Dr Magee, I do indeed feel I have let down the session by not uploading a presentation. As it happens, we had a very exciting series of experiments planned for March and April that would expand on our preliminary results and form the substantive portion of this presentation. Unfortunately, due to COVID19 restrictions, everything has been delayed. The technique we have developed is based on synchronisation between the laser and quadrupole (or other sequential MS) which completely eliminates aliasing effects. This substantially improves the quality of imaging and allows us to achieve very nice results (for a modest number of masses) without the cost (and other trade-offs) caused by going to a simultaneous MS, such as a TOF. Our data suggest that any LA-ICP-MS users working with "fast response" funnels (of any kind) will benefit immensely from using this technique. If you are interested, please email me (an@norsci.com) and I will gladly send through more technical information as well as the presentation once it can be completed in the coming months. Apologies again for not uploading a presentation, Ash
