ABSTRACT:
This invention is directed to systems for presenting an analyte to an energy source for desorption in methods of analytic detection, such as mass spectrometry. The probes have a layer of energy absorbing molecules on their surface which absorbs energy form the energy source, thereby enabling desorption of the analyte form the probe surface. The layer of energy absorbing molecules is immobilized by chemical bonding to the probe surface and/or is substantially free of crystals.
