Before joining SEER Technology, Mr. Arnold spent 7 years as a Senior Research Associate at the University of Utah, Center for Micro Analysis and Reaction Chemistry. Previous to that, Mr. Arnold was President of FemtoScan Corporation in Salt Lake City, UT. In addition to his responsibilities as president, he also directed research and development for FemtoScan. These R&D efforts included continuing development of FemtoScan AVS-TLGC equipment and applications using both MS and IMS-based detectors. Though his original training was in physics and applied mathematics, Mr. Arnold has long held an interest in analytical chemistry and instrumentation. Past projects include continuing development of a direct atmospheric vapor sampling inlet for use with a portable mass spectrometer via a transfer line GC/MS method, construction of a man-portable transfer line GC/MS system, and testing of novel GC/IMS concepts. Mr. Arnold's research experience extends to a number of mass spectrometric instrument types including magnetic sector, quadrupole and ion trap type instruments, and methods including GC/MS, chemical ionization MS, and FAB-MS in both low and high-resolution systems. As an instrument developer, Mr. Arnold has experience in computer systems and programming, gas chromatography, vacuum systems, electronics, and sample introduction methods. Mr. Arnold received his M.S., in Physics from the University of Utah in 1984 and his B.S., in Physics from the University of Wyoming in 1982.
