ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an apparatus for providing an ionized analyte for mass analysis by photon desorption comprising at least one layer for contacting an analyte, and a substrate on which said layer is deposited. Upon irradiation of said apparatus, said analyte desorbs and ionizes for analysis by mass spectrometry. The layer or layers of said apparatus comprise a continuous film, a discontinuous film or any combinations thereof.
