Meet the ever expanding application demands of geosciences and other disciplines that require high-precision isotope ratio measurements with Thermo Scientific™ Neptune™ Series high resolution multicollector ICP-MS (MC-ICP-MS) instrumentation.
The Thermo Scientific™ Neptune XT™ MC-ICP-MS integrates established field-proven technologies of the Neptune Series instruments with the latest developments in technology for isotope ratio analysis from Thermo Fisher Scientific™. These developments include 1013 Ω Amplifier Technology with gain calibration and Tau correction, a Jet Interface for highest sensitivity, and a central dual-channel detector (SEM/Faraday cup).
Neptune Series instruments: Pioneering multicollector technologies, perfecting multicollector technology for geosciences and other discipline applications.
Neptune Plus™ High Resolution Multicollector ICP-MS:
- First with Retarding Potential Quadrupole Lenses (RPQ) for abundance sensitivity.
- First to introduce a reliable moveable collector array, over 500 built.
- First to report ultra-high-precision static isotope ratio measurements.
- First for high-resolution MC-ICP-MS, enabling measurement of Si, S, Ca, Fe, Ni and many more isotopic systems.
- First with stable and linear SEM and then CDD ion counters.
Neptune XT™ High Resolution Multicollector ICP-MS:
- First with 1013 Ω Amplifier Technology, extending the benefits of Faraday cup detectors to smaller sample amounts. Now available with gain calibration and tau correction.
- First for sensitivity – the Jet Interface offers the highest ICP-MS sensitivity available.
- First with the XHR option – 15,000 MRP for hydride interference removal from 25Mg, 29Si, 37Cl and 41K.
