Abstract :
Secondary ion emission with large gas cluster ion is reviewed from the point of view of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS). We have proposed to use large cluster ions to realize fragment-free ionization for SIMS analysis for various organic materials, such as amino acids and peptides. When large cluster ions with optimized size and energy were incident on biomolecular samples, the relative yields of the fragment ions decreased drastically with the velocity of incident cluster ions. Molecular depth profiling capability is also demonstrated by using large gas cluster ions as the primary ion for SIMS.
