Prospecting of the collision electron spectroscopy method and its integration into personal microplasma photoionization sensor CES

Abstract

Abstract The method of Collision Electron Spectroscopy (CES), which allowed the plasma research group of St. Petersburg Mining University to develop an innovative photoionization sensor, has several applied advantages over existing analog molecular detection methods currently used at enterprises. Though, the rate of global consumption of products manufactured at enterprises increases, which has a high risk of threat to human life and health, most developers are not able to meet the increased level of international quality standards for measuring instruments. The CES method not only makes it possible to increase the accuracy of modern measuring equipment at times, but makes the gas analyzer device portable, increases autonomy, and also significantly reduces the device’s dimensions, which, as a result, allows the device to be used as an individual portable sensor and used for diagnostics health conditions at home.
