What is Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOF MS)?
Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (TOF MS) is an analytical technique used to determine the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of ions. This technique measures the time it takes for ions to travel a known distance in a vacuum tube. The time is then used to calculate the mass of the ions. TOF MS offers high sensitivity and resolution, making it ideal for nanotechnology applications.
