Features of Neptune Plus™ High Resolution Multicollector ICP-MS

Jet Interface for Ultimate Sensitivity   

  • The jet interface increases sensitivity 10-20 times across the entire mass range in desolvation mode.   

    High-Resolution Double-Focusing Analyzer   * ICP interface improves resolution, reducing the initial kinetic energy spread by capacitively decoupling the plasma from the load coil   * Double-focusing mass analyzer focuses both ion energy and angular divergence for superior mass resolution   * Independent source and detector slit settings enhance mass resolution by separating molecular interferences from elemental peaks   * Wide detector slit in all resolutions guarantees the widest peak flatness at high resolving powers, a prerequisite for highly precise and accurate isotope ratio analyses   * Low, medium and high resolution settings can be selected with a single mouse click   

    Fully Flexible Detection System   * High-performance Faraday cups are laser machined from solid carbon to guarantee uniform response, high linearity, low noise, and long lifetimes; they completely eliminate the need for cup factors   * Tera-Ohm feedback resistors improve signal-to-noise ratios two to three fold   * Up to 10 current amplifiers with independent gains can be installed simultaneously   * Software control of the amplifier/Faraday cup connections allows amplifier configuration to be configured to the needs of each experiment and its required precision   * Available retarding potential quadrupole (RPQ) lenses improve abundance sensitivity by one order of magnitude to <500 ppb   * Multi-ion counting (MIC) arrays of discrete-dynode electron multipliers provide ultimate detection efficiency for small sample amounts   * Up to eight discrete dynode electron multipliers can be installed at one time   

    Sophisticated Software Control   * Software allows a fully automated plasma-ignition sequence   * Cup configuration editor is used to define cup configurations   * Method editor enables the user to set up measurement procedures, including static, multidynamic, and fast single-collector peak jumping strategies   * On-line and off-line data evaluation packages are available, including statistical capabilities and display of the results in spreadsheet or graphical form   * Users have access to all raw data and can monitor the results online during the analysis. The software allows data to be evaluated and flexibly exported; ideal for laser ablation applications.   * Sequence editor provides automatic, unattended acquisition and evaluation of samples including sample/standard bracketing and blank subtraction   * Triggering of, or triggering from coupled devices, e.g. from a laser system, is fully supported   * Automated report generation of analytical results is included   * Scripting based on the C programming language allows modification of supplied procedures.   * For GC and HPLC applications, additional software package dedicated to the evaluation of transient signals are available
