The 157 nm photofragmentation of native and derivatized oligosaccharides was studied in a linear ion trap and in a home-built matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) tandem time-of-flight (TOF/TOF) mass spectrometer, and the results were compared with collision-induced dissociation (CID) experiments. Photodissociation produces product ions corresponding to high-energy fragmentation pathways; for cation-derivatized oligosaccharides, it yields strong cross-ring fragment ions and provides better sequence coverage than low- and high-energy CID experiments. On the other hand, for native oligosaccharides, CID yielded somewhat better sequence coverage than photodissociation. The ion trap enables CID hybrid MS3 experiments on the high-energy fragment ions obtained from photodissociation.

Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) show promise in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, near-infrared (NIR) LEDs employing PQDs exhibit inferior external quantum efficiency related to the PQD emitting in the visible range. One fundamental issue arises from the PQDs dynamic surface: the ligand loss and ions migration to the interfacial sites serve as quenching centers, resulting in trap-assisted recombination and carrier loss.

Triptorelin, a synthetic gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH), is mainly used in the clinical treatment of prostate cancer. The mechanism initially stimulates luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone secretion followed by suppression, resulting in a reduction in cancer progression. However, GnRHs are prohibited in doping control because of the indirect surge of LH and testosterone.

Phased structures for lossless ion manipulation offer significant improvements over the scanning second gate method for coupling with ion trap mass analyzers. With an experimental run time of under 1 min for select conditions and an average run time of less than 4 min, this approach significantly reduces experimental time while enhancing the temporal duty cycle. The outlined SLIM system connects to an ion trap mass analyzer via a PCB stacked ring ion guide, which replaces the commercial ion optics and capillary inlet.

For silicon-based devices using dielectric oxides doped with rare earth ions, their electroluminescence (EL) performance relies on the sufficient carrier injection. In this work, the atomic GaO layers are inserted within the Er-doped GeO nanofilms fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD). Both Ga(CH) and Ga(CH) could realize the ALD growth of GaO onto the as-deposited GeO nanofilm with unaffected deposition rates.

Article Synopsis
- Electric quadrupole traps effectively levitate charged objects, from protons to small particles, influencing their rotational behavior when charge distribution varies.
- Experiments reveal a shift in motion for microparticles, transitioning from librational to synchronized rotation with the trap drive due to torque effects from the electric quadrupole.
- This technique showcases versatility by spinning various particles like silicon microrods and microdiamonds, with the latter enabling detailed motion analysis through embedded nitrogen vacancy centers, promising advances in levitated quantum nanomechanics.
