AFM: The AFM consists of a cantilever with a sharp tip at its end that is used to scan the specimen surface. The cantilever is typically silicon nitride with a tip radius of curvature on the order of nanometers. When the tip is brought into proximity of a sample surface, forces between the tip and the sample lead to a deflection of the cantilever according to Hooke’s law. The forces measured in AFM include mechanical contact force, van der Waals forces, capillary forces, chemical bonding, electrostatic forces, and magnetic forces, among others.

Make: ThermoFisher Scientific

Model: ICP-MS iCAPRQ.

Working Principle :

ICP-MS analysis requires the use of liquefied sample solutions. The sample solution is introduced into the device, where it becomes nebulised in a spray chamber. Aerosol samples are transported into the core of the inductively coupled argon plasma, where they are completely desolvated, atomised, and ionised. These ions are then extracted from the plasma by skimmers, interference cones, and extraction lenses. After passing through the lenses, the ion particles are further refined by passing through an off-axis ion lens, which removes photons and neutral ions and reduces background noise.


Polyatomic ions, which act as interferences, are removed using kinetic energy discrimination, where the larger polyatomic ions lose energy faster than the analyte ions and are easily removed from the sample beam. From there, the beam of ions travels into the hyperbolic quadrupole of the mass spectrometer, where the ions are separated by their mass-to-charge ratio. Only the selected ions are allowed to travel on towards the detector, where they are measured and reported by the ICP-MS in terms of counts per second and concentration. The system can detect elements from Lithium to Uranium.
