Infrared Multi-photon Dissociation
DRAFT DEFINITION
Dissociation of an ion or molecule that results from the absorption of energy of multiple infrared photons. IRMPD can be used in a FT-ICRMS cell using an infra-red CO₂ laser.
Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission

 {{DefName|
-An efficient method for producing [[MS/MS]] data in a [[FT-ICRMS]] cell through the use of an infra-red CO<sub>2</sub> laser.  This has benefits over the [[SORI]] technique since the lack of the collision gas improves the duty cycle of [[IRMPD]] scans.
