Abstract

The unique ability of ultra-short laser pulses to couple energy into material faster than the energy diffuses, enables laser ablation of bio-samples without heat transfer to the surrounding material. In particular, individual plant cells can be investigated without collateral damage. Femtosecond laser-based mass spectrometry technique suitable for investigation of ion contents in plant cells is reported. The technique is applied to the measurement of iron in dried maize leaves.
