## Abstract A brief introduction is presented to the basic principles and application of a quadrupole–time‐of‐flight (TOF) tandem mass spectrometer. The main features of reflecting TOF instruments with orthogonal injection of ions are discussed. Their operation and performance are compared with tho

In this paper, the time resolution for kinetic studies of reactions with mass spectrometric detection is characterized in detail, and it is shown how this allows faster kinetic processes to be determined. The time-resolved technique used pulsed laser photolysis to initiate reaction and a time-of-fli
In the 1990s time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) has reestablished itself as a mainstream technique in mass spectrometry. There have been several developments which have contributed to this. The development of the technique of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), a pulsed ioniza
The principles and applications of time-of-¯ight mass spectrometry involving instruments with independent (orthogonal) axes for ion generation and mass analysis are reviewed. This approach, generally referred to as orthogonal acceleration time-of-¯ight mass spectrometry, has proved particularly adva
## Abstract This paper focuses on development of time‐of‐flight (TOF) mass spectrometry in response to the invention of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI). Before this breakthrough ionization technique for nonvolatile molecules, TOF was generally considered as a useful tool for exo
The pulsed ion sources used in conventional time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) generally do not provide adequate resolving power across the mass range required for applications such as gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry (GUMS). Theoretical and experimental aspects of beam defle
