  • Publication number: 20230137483
    Abstract: An oxygen reduction device in an ion source region of inductively coupled plasma is provided. The oxygen reduction device includes a torch and an inflation sleeve. An upper end of the inflation sleeve is sealed and sleeved outside the torch, and a lower end of the inflation sleeve and the torch are arranged at an interval to form an inflation gap. An inflation hole communicating with the inflation gap is formed in an outer side wall of the inflation sleeve. An outer side face of the lower end of the inflation sleeve is protruded outwards to form an annular gas guiding protrusion. The annular gas guiding protrusion is configured for being arranged opposite to a sampling cone base arranged below the torch, and a gas outlet gap is formed between the annular gas guiding protrusion and the sampling cone base.

  • Patent number: 11127579
    Abstract: A zircon ID-TIMDS Pb isotope determination method by multiple ion counters with a dynamic multi-collection protocol is provided. Compared with a commonly used multi-ion counter static determination method, the method provided by the present invention completely eliminates influences of gain differences of the different ion counters on determination results of Pb isotopes. Compared with a conventional single-ion counter determination method with five times of peak-jumps, the method provided by the present invention can obtain all of Pb isotope ratios with two times of peak-jumps, which increases the collection efficiency of Pb isotope ion beams and decreases influences of ion beam stability on Pb isotope analysis results.
