3D printing of graphene-doped target for "matrix-free" laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry.

Abstract
:

We report a graphene-doped resin target fabricated via a 3D printing technique for laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry analysis. The graphene doped in the target acts as an inherent laser absorber and ionization promoter, thus permitting the direct analysis of samples without adding matrix. This work reveals a new strategy for easy designing and fabrication of functional mass spectrometry devices.
