Spatially Resolved Laser and Thermal Desorption/Ionization Coupled with Mass Spectrometry

The work discussed in this dissertation is aimed at creating novel approaches to chemical imaging that ultimately allow for submicron resolution. This goal has been approached from two direction using laser based desorption and coupling it with an AFM using apertureless tip-enhanced laser ablation/...
