Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Laser-induced and matrix-free desorption/ionization on various submicrometer structures was investigated. First, to examine the effect of surface roughness on ionization, a silicon wafer or stainless steel was scratched with sandpaper. The fluences of a 337-nm nitrogen laser, required for ionization of synthetic polymers and reserpine, were markedly reduced on the scratched stainless steel or silicon as compared to the corresponding untreated surface. Next, arrays of submicrometer grooves, which had been lithographically fabricated on a silicon wafer, yielded protonated angiotensin, and the morphologic orientation demonstrated the positive relation between the laser and groove directions for promoting ionization. The fabricated structure also suggested the submicrometer, but not smaller, or nanometer, structures to be a key factor in direct desorption/ionization on rough surfaces. Finally, submicrometer porous structures of alumina or polyethylene yielded intense molecular ion signals of angiotensin and insulin, in response to direct UV irradiation, when the surface was coated with Au or Pt. The coating provided the additional advantage of prolonged activity for a porous alumina chip, exceeding a month even when the chip was left in the open air. These results indicate that laser-induced desorption/ionization of organic compounds can be implemented on submicrometer structures with an Au- or Pt-coated surface irrespective of the basal materials. © 2005 American Chemical Society.
