ABSTRACT:
A pulsed plume of laser ablated photo-ionizable material is emitted from a target in a vacuum, and a pulsed beam of light thereafter produces ionization of two plume sections straddling a central nonionized plume portion. A mask is provided, intermediate the plume and the laser generating the ionizing pulsed beam of light, to shield the central plume portion to prevent ionization thereof. The ionized portions of the plume are swept away from the vicinity of the non-ionized plume portion by a magnetic field, and the remaining nonionized portion passes through an aperture in a retrieval mask to produce the output of the atomic source.
