On Applicability of a Miniaturised Laser Ablation Time of Flight Mass Spectrometer for Trace Elements Measurements

Figure 3

The temporal evolution of the intensity and shape of a typical mass peak during the measurements performed from one sample location. ((a) and (c)) display changes of the peak intensity and its width during the measurements. ((b) and (d)) display temporal changes of the mass peak envelope; the peak centre and exponential decay constant define the exponentially modified Gauss function used to model the experimental mass peak.
