Thermal ionization. As the name implies, the production of ions in a thermal ionization source is caused by chemical reactions occurring on the surface of a hot refractory metal filament.

 — Thermal Ionization. Heating a gas, like in a flame or hot filament, gives the atoms and molecules enough thermal energy to ionize. The high temperatures cause the particles to move so fast that electrons can break free, forming ions. This is how ions are produced in a flame for atomic emission spectroscopy.

 — Compared with the ICP ion source, the thermal ionization ion source is energy-limited, and thus ionization is mostly limited to target elements with very few polyatomic ions.

Thermal Ionization MS Thermal Ionization Source The thermal ionization source is characterized by a very small kinetic energy spread of the ions (~0.5 eV). A single focusing geometry that focuses for angular divergence only is therefore fully sufficient. Chromatic aberrations due to the initial energy spread of the ions can be neglected.
