    Abstract: A mass spectrometry device includes a sample stage, an irradiator, a MCP, a fluorescent body, an imager, and a controller. The irradiator irradiates a sample with an energy beam to ionize a plurality of components of the sample while maintaining position information of the plurality of components. The MCP emits electrons in accordance with an ionized sample. The fluorescent body emits fluorescent light in accordance with the electrons. The imager has a shutter mechanism configured to be capable of switching an open state and a close state. The controller controls an opening and closing operation of the shutter mechanism. The controller allows the imager to image the fluorescent light corresponding to each of the plurality of components by performing the opening and closing of the shutter mechanism at a timing for each of the components.

    Abstract: An imaging unit includes a MCP, a fluorescent body, and an imager. The MCP is provided on a flight route of an ionized sample that is a component of a sample ionized and emits electrons in accordance with the ionized sample. The fluorescent body is disposed in a subsequent stage of the MCP and emits fluorescent light in accordance with the electrons emitted from the MCP. The imager is disposed in a subsequent stage of the fluorescent body and has a shutter mechanism configured to be capable of switching an open state in which the fluorescent light is imaged by allowing the fluorescent light from the fluorescent body to pass through and a close state in which the fluorescent light is not imaged by blocking the fluorescent light from the fluorescent body. An afterglow time of the fluorescent body is 12 ns or shorter.

    Abstract: A laser desorption/ionization method includes a first process of preparing a sample support body. The sample support body includes a substrate, an ionization substrate, and a support that supports the ionization substrate with respect to the substrate such that a first surface of the ionization substrate is separated from the substrate. A plurality of through-holes are formed at least in measurement regions of the ionization substrate. A conductive layer is provided on peripheral edges of the through-holes at least on the second surface. Further, the laser desorption/ionization method includes a second process of dropping the sample on the measurement regions of the ionization substrate, and a third process of, after the sample has infiltrated into the ionization substrate, ionizing components of the sample by applying a laser beam to the second surface while applying a voltage to the conductive layer.
