Performance Characterization Of A Cylindrical Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer
(2011-01-31)The cylindrical ion trap (CIT) is made up of two planar endcap electrodes and a cylindrical ring electrode. The investigation of simpler geometries like CIT has been started off in recent years with a view towards ... -
A Preliminary Investigation Of The Role Of Magnetic Fields In Axially Symmetric rf Ion Traps
(2013-07-16)Axially symmetric rf ion traps consists of a mass analyser having three electrodes, one of which is a central ring electrode and the other two are endcap electrodes. In the ideal Paul trap mass spectrometer, the electrodes ... -
A Preliminary Study Of Fields In Split-Electrode Ion Traps
(2014-08-20)Ion traps used in mass spectrometers are of two classes. One class consists of traps having three electrode geometries which have rotational symmetry about central axis. They are called axially symmetric ion traps. Paul ... -
Resonant Excitation Of Ions In Paul Trap Mass Spectrometer
(2007-12-29)A Paul trap mass spectrometer has a three-electrode geometry mass analyzer consisting of two identical end cap electrodes and a ring electrode. Traditionally, the two end cap electrodes are electrically grounded and an RF ... -
