Resonance-Enhanced Multi-Photon Ionization (REMPI) with W-laser radiat
ion offers the possibility of species selective ionization. The combin
ation of REMPI and time-of-flight mass spectrometry (resonance-enhance
d laser mass spectrometry or LAMS) represents a useful tool for select
ive detection of trace quantities of organic compounds out of complex
matrices.
