The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 13966, GB/T 27411 and JJF 1159, and the following
terms and definitions are applicable to this document.
3.1 plasma
A conical component that combines plasma with a high-vacuum mass spectrometer. There is a
circular hole approximately 1 mm in diameter at the center, which utilizes a pressure differential
to draw most of the ions in the central channel of the plasma into the first-stage vacuum chamber.
3.12 skimmer cone
A conical component that connects the sampler cone to the high-vacuum mass spectrometer.
There is a circular hole less than 1 mm in diameter at the center, concentric with the axial
direction of the sampler cone hole, which introduces the central part of the expanded ion jet
through the sampler cone hole into the mass spectrometer.

[GB/T 13966-2013, Definition 6.104]

[GB/T 13966-2013, Definition 6.126]
3.15 quadrupole mass analyzer
mass filter
quadrupole mass filter
A mass analyzer consisting of a quadrupole field composed of a superimposed DC and RF field.
Under given field parameters, ions of different mass-to-charge ratios are in stable or unstable
orbital motion within the field. Stable ions are collected, while unstable ions are filtered out.
[GB/T 13966-2013, Definition 6.123]
3.16 mass discrimination effect
In mass spectrometry, the phenomenon that separation based on mass-to-charge ratio cannot be
completely achieved.
[GB/T 13966-2013, Definition 6.169]
4 Principle of Analytical Method
This is an inorganic multi-element analysis technique using inductively coupled plasma as the
ion source and quadrupole mass analyzer for detection. The specimen is introduced into the
plasma via a carrier gas in a certain form, where it undergoes de-solvation, vaporization,
dissociation, and ionization in a high-temperature, inert atmosphere. A portion of the plasma
passes through different pressure zones and enters a vacuum system. Within the vacuum system,
positive ions are extracted and separated in accordance with their mass-to-charge ratio before
being detected by an ion detector. Qualitative analysis can be performed based on the mass-to-
charge ratio, while quantitative analysis can be performed based on the detection signal at a
specific mass-to-charge ratio.
