Thanks for all kind suggestion and discussion.I have
learned a lot from your feedback. It seems that the
idea doesn't work on general mass spectrometer
configiration. If I had to do it by peak jumping, what
is the highest possible resolution I can get if I did
it for many times? For two gases in source, is there
any interference between N2 and Ar?(cause just as Dr.
Michalski said, O2 might have very obvious
interference with both N2 and Ar).whether such
interference can be calibrated by using standard?

Appreciate for all your help!

Best regards

Tao
