An image acquisition semiconductor film for a high-resolution mass spectrometric imaging system, and a preparation method and an application. The image acquisition semiconductor film for the high-resolution mass spectrometric imaging system is prepared by using the following method: weighing semiconductor nanometer particles, putting the semiconductor nanometer particles into a muffle furnace for burning first, further grinding by using an agate mortar, and uniformly dispersing the semiconductor nanometer particles so as to obtain semiconductor nanometer powder; and finally, pressing the semiconductor nanometer powder in a compressor so as to obtain the semiconductor film. Based on laser activated electron tunnelling as well as photoelectron capture ionization and dissociation, sample molecules are ionized without background interference; the limitation of a conventional MALDI substrate is overcome; the semiconductor film is simple and easy to obtain, is stable in mass spectrometric signal, has a uniform and smooth surface, generates no background interference, and can be used for fingerprint analyzing and animal and plant tissue slice analysis; and the semiconductor film is particularly suitable for accurate mass spectrometric imaging of small molecular substances, so that quality control and industrialization can be performed conveniently.
