Applications of the fast imaging PImMS camera

(Univ. Oxford)
oMark Brouard

Recent work on the development of a fast imaging camera, known as the Pixel Imaging Mass Spectrometer (or PImMS) camera will be described. This camera has been developed in collaboration between the Physics and Chemistry Departments at Oxford University, and the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Science and Technology funding Council, UK. The talk will principally focus on example applications of the PImMS camera to imaging mass spectrometry of surfaces and other samples. Other applications of the PImMS camera, including studies of molecular photofragmentation using correlation imaging techniques, will be touched on briefly in the presentation. Future potential developments and applications will also be discussed.
