Save Time Dependent Intensities (TDI)

This menu will output the Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) intensity arrays for each standard or unknown sample. Only elements that are Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) corrected will be output (only the first element of each spectrometer). It will output the assigned or self Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) intensities depending on the Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) assignment. Sample assigned to another sample are assigned Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) corrected, sample assigned to themselves are self Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) corrected.

 

El TIME                   Elapsed time, element labels and raw TDI intensities

El SEC          

El CPS

 

El SEC           Elapsed time, element labels and beam drift corrected TDI intensities

El CPS/nA

 

El SEC           Elapsed time, element labels and beam drift corrected and background corrected TDI intensities

El P-B_CPS/nA

 

El ABSCURR   Absorbed current (in nA) for each TDI element.

 

Both raw cps, beam normalized (cps/nA) and background corrected intensities are output. Combined condition sample are beam drift corrected based on the arrays of measured beam current for each element. Note: Only off-peak Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) element intensities are background corrected, no background correction is applied to MAN background corrected Time Dependent Intensity (TDI) elements.
