  • Patent number: 10553416
    Abstract: A mass spectrometer includes a beam radiator radiating a beam to a sample. A laser radiator radiates laser light onto an irradiation surface of a surface of the sample irradiated with the beam or above the irradiation surface. The laser radiator splits the laser light into at least first light and second light. The laser radiator adjusts a polarization state, a length of an optical path, or a direction of the optical path of at least either the first light or the second light to condense the first light and the second light onto the irradiation surface or above the irradiation surface. A detector detects particles discharged from the sample.

  • Publication number: 20200006732
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electrode structure is provided. The separator includes an organic fiber layer. The organic fiber layer includes an organic fiber having an aspect ratio (V1/H1) in a cross section which is 0.97 or less. The cross section intersects with a length direction of the organic fiber. The organic fiber having the aspect ratio (V1/H1) is in contact with a surface of the active material-containing layer having a roughness higher than an arithmetic mean surface roughness Ra of the active material-containing layer in the cross section. The V1 denotes a length parallel to a thickness direction of the active material-containing layer. The H1 denotes a length horizontal to an in-plane direction of the active material-containing layer.

  • Patent number: 9431229
    Abstract: A sputter neutral particle mass spectrometry apparatus includes a sample table holding a sample which is a mass spectrometry target, an ion beam irradiation device which irradiates an ion beam on the sample held by the sample table to generate neutral particles in an adjacent region of the sample, a light beam irradiation device which irradiates a light beam on the neutral particles positioned in the adjacent region to obtain photoexcited ions, a draw-out electrode which draws out the photoexcited ions, a mass spectrometer which draws in the drawn out photoexcited ions to perform mass analysis, and an optical element which is provided in a light path after the light beam passes the adjacent region, and changes a traveling direction of the light beam so that the light beam passes the adjacent region again.
