Abstract
ⶠA photoionization aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometer (ATOFMS) has been developed for on-line analysis of organic compounds in aerosol particles using tunable vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) synchrotron radiation. ⶠThe degree of fragmentation of molecule can be controlled either by the heater temperature or by the photon energy. ⶠThe direct determination of the IEs of benzopheneone (9.07 eV), salicylic acid (8.72 eV), and urea (9.85 eV) are measured from the photoionization efficiency spectra. ⶠThe species can be identified by their molecular and fragment ions weights as well as by the comparisions between their theoretical and experimental ionization energies.
