ABSTRACT:
An ionic liquid membrane provides both vacuum sealing and ion transport for a mass spectrometer. Ion transport is necessary to take advantage of modern Electrospray Ionization (ESI) and Desorption Electrospray Ionization (DESI) methods. Combining vacuum sealing for the mass spectrometer with ion transport into the mass spectrometer reduces, and can eliminate, the need for multiple differential pumping stages significantly reducing size, weight and power requirements.
