摘要
The use of buckminsterfullerene (C60) carbon clusters as a matrix for MALDI-TOFMS of uranium determination was studied. The C60 fullerene is easily ionized either to C60- or C 60+ ions and when increasing the laser energy, the destruction of C60 to C58 C56, C54, etc. fragments and the formation of higher carbon clusters C106 +, C108+, C118+, etc. is observed. In the same time with the fullerene destruction, the intensity of uranium oxide peaks UO2+ and UO+ is intensified. Conditions such as laser energy and the use of linear, reflectron, negative or positive modes were studied and the detection limit of uranium down to ∼50 femto mol of uranium was reached. © 2005 Akadémiai Kiadó.
