Nonlinear Dynamics Of Resonances In, And Ejection From Paul Traps
(2008-09-26)
This thesis presents results of investigations that have been carried out to understand dynamics in nonlinear Paul trap mass spectrometers. Of the three problems that have been taken up for study in this thesis, the first ...
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 ...
Escape Of High Mass Ions Due To Initial Thermal Energy And Its Implications For RF Trap Design
(2013-05-31)
This thesis investigates the loss of high mass ions due to the initial thermal energy in ion trap mass analyzers. It provides an analytical expression for estimating the percentage loss of ions of a given mass at a particular ...
Axially Symmetric Equivalents Of Three-Dimensional Rf Ion Traps
(2013-09-13)
This thesis presents axially symmetric equivalents of three-dimensional rf ion traps. Miniaturization in mass spectrometry has focused on miniaturizing mass analyzers. Decrease in mass analyzer size facilitates reduction ...
