Overview of Source Products 

Chem-Space has integrated hotter sources with better optics and conductance transmission to result in more efficient, higher sensitivity, and greater specificity atmospheric pressure sources.

Source Type Benefits
Electrospray High efficiency sprayers have been integrated with shielding lenses and high compression optics.
APCI Remote generation of reagent ions increases the effective volume of the ionization source and transmission efficiency.
AP-MALDI Independent of surface position relative to the conductance opening allows ease of access, simpler sample manipulation, and higher efficiencies of ion collection. 
Surface Analysis

Field-free reagent sources allow ion reactions on or near surfaces coupled with efficient collection optics from the sample surface to the conductance opening.
