Isotopic ratio analysis of individual sub-micron particles <i>via</i> spICP-TOFMS
Sarah E. Szakas, Alexander Gundlach‐Graham
Abstract
Single particle ICP-TOFMS is used to measure isotope ratios within individual sub-micron particles. We explore the advantages and limitations of this method through the analysis of stable and radiogenic isotope pairs in monazite and galena particles.
