Patents by Inventor Jo Il Kim

Jo Il Kim has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9905408
    Abstract: A sample plate in use with a MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight) mass spectrometer. The sample plate is usable for the mass spectrometry of a polymeric material on the order of several hundreds of Da and a method of manufacturing the same sample plate. The sample plate including a target plate, an organic matrix formed on one surface of the target plate, and a Parylene thin film formed on the target plate on which the organic matrix is formed, the Parylene thin film entirely covering the organic matrix.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9355829
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a sample plate to be used for a MALDI-TOF (Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time of Flight) mass spectrometer, and more particularly, to a sample plate for a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer, which is particularly useful for molecular weight measurement of a high-volatile material, a method of manufacturing the sample plate and a mass spectrometry method using the sample plate. Object of the present invention to provide a method capable of performing a mass spectrometry for a high-volatile material by using a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer so as to overcome the limits of the gas chromatography method of the related art. According to the present invention, there is provided a sample plate including a target plate, an organic matrix formed on one surface of the target plate, a parylene thin film formed on the target plate having the organic matrix formed thereon and formed to cover the entire organic matrix, and a sample fixing layer formed on the parylene thin film.
