单词 mass spectrometer
释义

mass spectrometern.

Brit. /ˌmas spɛkˈtrɒmᵻtə/, U.S. /ˈˌmæs ˌspɛkˈtrɑmədər/
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: mass n.2, spectrometer n.
Etymology: < mass n.2 + spectrometer n. Compare earlier mass spectrograph n.
An apparatus used to analyse substances by the separation of ions in a sample according to their mass-to-charge ratio, which produces a distinctive mass spectrum; esp. an apparatus of this kind in which the ions are detected electrically rather than photographically.The sample to be analysed is vaporized and ionized in a vacuum, and the resulting ions formed into a beam and accelerated through an electric field. They are then deflected differentially according to their mass, usually by passing through a magnetic field, before detection.
