A new type of multi-turn time-of-flight mass spectrometer was constructed, consisting of four cylindrical electric sectors and 28 electric quadrupole lenses, the size of the vacuum chamber being 60 Γ 70 Γ 20 cm. It was demonstrated that the mass resolution can be increased according to the number of

β¦ Synopsis
The ion optics of multi-turn time-of-Γight (TOF) mass spectrometry was investigated. Two feasible systems using toroidal sector plus quadrupole lenses and cylindrical sectors plus quadrupole doublets were found. The combination of a linear TOF with a Γgure-of-eight type multi-turn system is proposed.

A new focused ion beam optical system that uses a liquid metal ion source was designed for a new secondary ion time-of-flight mass spectrometry instrument. This optical system consists mainly of two electrostatic lenses. The axial performance of the system was calculated to decide the design values
We describe the coupling of a microfabricated fluidic device to an electrospray ionization (ESI) quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (QqTOFMS) for the identification of protein samples. The microfabricated devices consisted of three reservoirs connected via channels to a main capillary, whic
In this work we have developed a PC-based simulation to study ion injection, cooling and extraction processes for multiple ions in an ion trap/reflectron time-of-flight (IT/reTOF) system. This simulation is based upon SIMION 6.0 with user written programs in which a 3D collision model is used to des
The performance of an energy sensitive, niobium superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) detector is investigated by measuring the pulse height produced by impacting molecular and atomic ions at different kinetic energies. Ions are produced by laser desorption and matrix-assisted laser desorption in a
