歴史とカメラ技術の類似性から学ぶ質量分析装置の将来像

(横市大)
o高山光男

The future perspectives of mass spectrometry (MS) are discussed from the points of history and analogy with change in the technology of photography with camera. The photography was used to observe the images of atomic and molecular ions and to measure those masses about a century ago. Today, MS has been used for measuring the mass of atoms, molecules and clusters with magnetic, electrostatic, radio-frequency wave and image-current devices, while the photography with camera has made remarkable change with chemical, physical, material and digital technologies to observe and representative all the objectives. The technology of camera has grown up to the instrument recording the images using from chemical-based analogue film to electronic-based digital electronic medium with electronic light-sensor devices. From this point, I would like to take up a question and possibility about mass-sensors as an analogy with camera.
