250324000 | CORONA IRRADIATION | 10 |
20080203303 | SINGLE ELECTRODE CORONA DISCHARGE ELECTROCHEMICAL/ELECTROSPRAY IONIZATION - A single electrode electrochemical/electrospray ionization source using a corona discharge and a method of analyzing a sample using a corona discharge single electrode electrochemical/electrospray ionization source are provided. In the corona discharge single electrode electrochemical/electrospray ionization technique electrons are removed from the metal tip of the device through gases present in the electrospray ion source resulting in electrochemical ionization of the sample of interest. The resulting odd electron sample cation (positive ion mode) or anion (negative ion mode) can then be analyzed by an appropriate technique, such as, for example, a mass spectrometer. | 08-28-2008 |

20130341507 | METHOD FOR ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING OF NON-CONDUCTING OBJECTS - In a method for electrostatic charging of non-conducting objects by at least one electrode under control of a control device, an object to be electrostatically charged is brought into the effective range of the electrode. The control device is transferred into an idling state if no object to be electrostatically charged is present in the effective range of the electrode, and, in the idling state, an idling current is impressed into the electrode. The control device is transferred into a charging state if an object to be electrostatically charged is brought into the effective range of the electrode, and, in the charging state, a charging current different than the idling current is impressed into the electrode by the control device. | 12-26-2013 |
