The HFML-FELIX institute houses an international user facility hosting a series of infrared free-electron lasers (FELs) that are available for experiments to both local and visiting (inter)national scientists. The lasers cover the infrared region from 2.8 – 150 µm with macropulse energies > 100 mJ (10 µs pulses @ 10 Hz). A major application of the FELs involves infrared ion spectroscopy, where vibrational spectra are obtained for the ionized molecules inside a mass spectrometer with the aim to elucidate their chemical structure. For this purpose, a high-resolution and high-sensitivity cryogenic ion trap mass spectrometer (MS) is required that will meet the diverse requirements of high sensitivity in analytical applications, high resolution in MS analysis, ion storage at cryogenic temperature leading to high spectral resolution in the IR spectra, and optical access to the ions in the cryogenic trap by the high pulse energies of the FELs. 1x Cryogenic ion trap mass spectrometer

University College CorkCork¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬University College Cork is seeking to procure: 1. A combined High-Resolution Mass Spectrometer (HRMS) for metabolomic analysis equipped with Desorption Electrospray Ionisation (DESI) imaging capability, based on a Waters Xevo QTof/MRT platform with Desorption Electrospray Ionisation (DESI) XS with imaging capabilities 2. A complementary triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Waters Xevo TQ-S cronos/micro) for highly sensitive targeted quantitative metabolomics. This infrastructure is required to support a Mass Spectrometry Core Facility (MS-IMPACT) funded through the Higher Education Research Equipment Grant (HEREG). The combined platform will provide complementary capabilities spanning discovery metabolomics, structural characterisation, spatial molecular imaging, and targeted quantitative analysis. The HRMS with DESI will be used for biological, environmental, pharmaceutical, forensic, archaeological, geological and bioprocess research applications and analysis from simple and complex mixtures with the ability to simultaneously to identify known metabolites with high sensitivity, discover previously unknown molecular features, determine accurate molecular masses and elemental compositions, characterise peptides, intact proteins, glycans, and small molecules, spatially localise pharmaceuticals, metabolites and chemical entities within complex biological and non-biological samples, including microbial modifications. One of the key differentiators for the Xevo QTof/MRT platform over other instruments is the reduced sampling time which enables better consistency over the peak range – this is particularly important when sampling a surface but important in many applications. The infrastructure will support applications including: biopharmaceutical characterisation, intact protein mass analysis; peptide mapping, glycan and glycopeptide profiling, microbial fermentation studies, food and environmental metabolomics, natural product discovery, clinical biomarker discovery; pharmaceutical synthesis, process, metabolites and degradation products, forensic and contaminant analysis. A key requirement of this infrastructure is the ability to perform ambient, minimally destructive mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) ideally within one vendor integrated platform offering (hardware, software, support). The Xevo G3 QTof will be compatible for DESI XS imaging for routine comprehensive tissue imaging and for locating substrates on a range of materials. DESI enables direct analysis of compounds from surfaces under ambient conditions with little or no sample preparation, by generating charged microdroplets that extract and ionise molecules directly from the sample surface. Unlike matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation (MALDI), DESI does not require matrix deposition, minimises chemical modification/ morphological changes in samples, reduces risk of analyte redistribution caused by matrix application; enables rapid analysis of heterogeneous samples; allows analysis under near-native conditions, facilitates analysis of diverse surfaces including tissues, microbial colonies, materials, chemical deposits, geological samples, paints/pigments and forensic samples including e.g. hair, nails , fingerprints, blood and explosive residues. DESI therefore provides a unique capability for a broad range of sample types. The DESI XS platform coupled to a high-resolution accurate mass instrument will enable: spatial metabolomics, microbial colony metabolite mapping, localisation of pharmaceutical compounds; analysis of fermentation processes; imaging of endogenous metabolites and investigation of biological and material interfaces. The imaging capability is a critical requirement of the infrastructure and represents a significant efficiency enhancement beyond conventional LC-MS analysis, allowing spatial characterisation in two dimensions. The HRMS is central to the UCC MS Core Facility and allows the simultaneous analysis of both known and ‘unknown’ compounds for high-resolution metabolomics capability to advance arrange of research programmes across the physical and life sciences. It therefore provides the required combination of sensitivity, accurate mass measurement, MS/MS capability and compatibility with DESI MS/MS imaging technology. The triple quadrupole mass spectrometer will be used in a complementary approach to the HRMS focused on targeted known metabolites across a range of food, nutrition and life science applications. While HRMS provides discovery and structural information, triple quadrupole mass spectrometry remains the benchmark technique for quantitative metabolomics, targeted biomarker validation, pharmacokinetic studies, low abundance metabolite detection; outine analytical workflows. The Xevo TQ-S cronos/micro platform provides, multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) provides high sensitivity, excellent quantitative precision high sample throughput. Applications include, but is not limited to, analysis of a range of fat- and water-soluble vitamins (as status biomarkers for population nutritional status surveillance), nucleotide sugars, amino acids, lipid mediators, microbial metabolites, pharmaceutical compounds and clinical biomarkers.Photocathode Laser System
Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf e.V.DresdenHelmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) has been working on the development of a superconducting electron source (SRF gun) for about 20 years. An integral part of this electron source is a photocathode laser which, in combination with a photocathode, uses the external photoelectric effect to generate electron pulses. These pulses are then accelerated by the electric field of the superconducting RF resonator. The required laser wavelength for this purpose is about 260 nm, while the aimed pulse energy at this wavelength is 5 μJ. Detailed requirements in the table below (2. Performance quote) are specified separately for the fundamental wavelength in infrared (IR) and the 4th harmonic in ultraviolet (UV). Pulse repetition rate shall be flexible and reach 2 MHz. The average power in UV has to reach at least 1 W. Laser pulse duration is a key optimization parameter that needs to be variable in the range of 0.3-10 ps FWHM. Moreover, the temporal (longitudinal) profile of the laser pulse overall is important for properties of the generated electron pulse and thus also needs to be adjustable. For this, a spatial light modulator for modifying the spectrum needs to be integrated in the offered system. It is desirable that the manufacturer finds settings of the spectral shaper that result in a flat-top temporal shape of the UV pulse. Given that the temporal shape of a chirped pulse is critical in the planned application, spectral smoothness, stability and absence of long wings or shoulders are of high importance. Spectrum distortions caused by nonlinear effects shall be insignificant even at the maximum required pulse energy. Ability to synchronize the oscillators' repetition rate to a radio-frequency (RF) reference signal is necessary. Achievable integrated time jitter in the range between 10 Hz and 1 MHz of the laser with respect to the reference shall not exceed 100 fs. However, synchronization electronics are not part of the current tender and will be obtained from another source. The oscillator needs to be prepared for repetition rate locking, i.e. contain a short-range and a long-range actuators for fine adjustment of the cavity length. Another aspect of synchronization is the ability to control the repetition rate and the emission time of the laser by an external trigger signal. This ability needs to be available. Reliability and permanent availability (24/7) are of particular importance. The system will be located in an optical laboratory with ±1°C temperature stability. Beside the fulfilment of the criteria described in annex 01A, the scope of deliveries and services includes, that means are to be offered in the quotation: • Factory Acceptance Test (FAT), with proof of fulfilment of the performance requirements • Delivery according to DDP (Incoterms 2010) to the place of usage • Installation und commissioning including On-Site Acceptance Test (OSAT), with proof of fulfilment of the performance requirements • 12 months warranty from OSAT • CE marking • complete manual in English • suitable "water-to-water chiller"Photocathode Laser System
