Hi
There were a number of trapped ion papers back in the 70's and 80's. The NIST
effort to transition from Cs to an ion standard was well underway by the mid
1980's.

Use the quadrupole system you're using as a trap as a mass-spec to do
the separation.

Hi
Mercury was tried very early on as a vapor standard. They had some significant
problems with it in the 1950's. It's not surprising that after 60 years
somebody might want to take another swing at it.
