EWCPS was the launchpad for the aurora Elite, an Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer.
Complementing the updated workhorse aurora M90 ICP-MS for routine laboratory analysis, the new aurora Elite is designed to set unprecedented, exceptional standards for sensitivity and matrix robustness.
The company claims it exceeds the performance of expensive magnetic sector field ICP-MS systems in many aspects, and far exceeds the sensitivity of other quadrupole ICP-MS systems on the market.
The combination of the aurora Elite’s GHz sensitivity with very short integration times makes it suitable for the analysis of nanoparticles at the smallest dimensions.
It also incorporates a Collision Reaction Interface (CRI II) for simple, robust, maintenance-free interference challenges.
There is the choice of Helium- or Hydrogen mode for improved detection limits of spectrally interfered isotopes and highest accuracy.
The European Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry (EWCPS) took place on February 10 - 15, 2013 in Krakow, Poland.
Product features
- 1.5 gigahertz per parts per million (1.5 GHz / ppm) sensitivity for precise and accurate quantification at single digit ppt levels and below.
- Suitable for the semiconductor, geochemistry, materials science and related applications.
- The lowest oxide ratios using its patented turner-interlaced coils ensures robust plasma conditions for complete matrix decomposition without the requirement of a plasma shield or guard electrode.
- High sensitivity with all-digital detector is designed to deliver excellent results for isotope ratio determinations of low concentrations and for large ratios, with both liquids and solids.
