Article Abstract

In this paper, we present a laser source designed specifically for time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) investigations of light-induced electron dynamics in quantum materials. Our laser source is based on a ytterbium-doped laser that seeds an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) followed by a difference frequency generation (DFG) stage. This configuration enables the generation of tunable near-infrared and mid-infrared laser pulses (1.5 to 8 μm - 0.82 to 0.15 eV) at 250 kHz of repetition rate, serving as the pump for TR-ARPES measurements. The remaining energy of the laser is used to generate the ultraviolet 6 eV probe pulses, which prompt the material to emit photoelectrons. We demonstrate the long-term stability of the source, as well as the characterization of the beam profiles and pulse durations. Additionally, we present preliminary TR-ARPES results obtained on BiTe, a prototypical 3D topological insulator. This paper illustrates the capability of our laser source to probe electronic dynamics in quantum materials.

Ti(CH) complexes produced by laser vaporization in a supersonic expansion are investigated with mass spectrometry, infrared laser photodissociation spectroscopy, and UV laser photodissociation. The mass distributions of the cluster ions produced are found to vary significantly with the sample rod mounting configuration in the source. For infrared spectroscopy experiments, the so-called "offset" rod mounting produces colder conditions than the "cutaway" configuration, which allows tagging the ions with one or more argon atoms for the = 1 and 2 complexes.

An integrated miniature time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS) system coupled with a pocket-size 3D-printed laser-induced acoustic desorption (LIAD) source is described. This 3D-printed LIAD source utilizes only a miniature deceleration motor to achieve two-dimensional motion of the target surface, simplifying the source structure and improving the long-term stability of mass spectrometry measurements. It has been successfully applied to analyze the model molecule creatinine and ingredients in an energy beverage (Red Bull), where main natural nutrients were clearly identified.

Background: Acinetobacter seifertii, a recently identified member of the Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii (Acb) complex, has emerged as a cause of severe human infections. It is closely related to Acinetobacter nosocomialis, a major pathogen of the Acb complex. Here, we aimed to explore the clinical and molecular differences between these two species.

Germ-Specific Triacylglycerols as Potential Biomarkers for Authenticating Zhongzi Purple Rice, a Cultivar Recognized for Its Nutritional Value.

Zhongzi purple rice is recognized as a nutritionally superior whole-grain variety, containing higher levels of protein, iron, dietary fiber, and vitamin B6 compared to conventional rice. While the nutritional profile of Zhongzi purple rice is well-established, the spatial distribution and structural specificity of its lipid components, especially germ-specific triacylglycerols (TAGs), remain poorly characterized. This study employs a multimodal mass spectrometric strategy to investigate the lipidomic uniqueness of the Zhongzi purple rice.
