title: Application of low-cost operational amplifiers to electrical detection in spark-source mass spectrometry.
abstract: An electrical detection system for spark-source mass spectrometry has recently been developed. This brief addendum describes an improvement in the signal amplification and its conversion to digital output which has important implications in the future development of electrical detection.
