Some Rare Earth Elements Analysis by Microwave Plasma Torch Coupled with the Linear Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry

Figure 2

(a) The MPT mass spectrum of lanthanum collected on the MPT-LTQ-MS in positive mode. A 10 mg/L lanthanum standard solution was used. (b) mass spectra of the precursor ions 317, up to 6. The subprecursor ions series are , corresponding to the dissociation fragment series H₂O, H₂O, H₂O, NO, and NO₄. (c) The MPT mass spectrum of La collected on a MPT quadrupole mass filer mass spectrometer.
