Improvement in the Analytical Capabilities of LA-ICP-MS for High Spatial Resolution U-Pb Dating of Zircon Using Mixed-Gas Plasma
In this work, a novel method for high spatial resolution U-Pb dating of zircon by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) at 10–16 μm spot diameter has been proposed. This was achieved by introducing 2% (v/v) water-ethanol vapours into ICP in combination with the shie...
