High-resolution drift tube ion mobility spectrometry, electrospray ionization, Q-TOF. Mainly used to study folding in solution and in the gas phase in soft conditions and for structural investigation on supramolecular complexes. The drift tube is operated in Helium or Nitrogen.
Electrospray ionization, 3D ion trap modified and coupled to a tunable OPO laser (195 to 2000 nm) pumped by a spectra-physics Quanta-ray pro 230-30 (355 nm). The instrument is used to study nucleic acid folding in solution and in the gas phase in soft conditions, and for the fragmentation of small molecules and non-covalent complexes.
The light source is a Spectra Physics PRO-230-30 Nd:YAG laser (355 nm) pumping a GWU Premiscan OPO running at 30 Hz.
Continuum Powerlite 8010 and Panther EX-plus OPO. High power nanosecond tunable pulsed laser from 215 to 2000 nm. Used to perform UVPD.
