The formation of ions | |def=The desorption of molecules and formation of ions outside the [[mass spectrometer]] directly from samples in their native environment with no or minimal sample preparation. Examples are [[desorption electrospray ionization]] (DESI) and direct analysis in real time (DART). | ||
Note: | :Note: Direct analysis in real time (DART) is a proprietary term indicating the formation of ions from a solid or liquid sample at atmospheric pressure through the interaction of a gas stream containing internally excited atoms or molecules with the surface. The excited state species are typically formed in a glow discharge in helium or nitrogen. The term should only be used to describe the trademarked product. | ||
