    摘要: A circular cycloidal mass spectrometer, Fig. 5, has an outer electrode (74) of generally circular configuration and an inner electrode (70) having generally circular outer periphery with an annulus (76) for the flow of ions (90) defined therebetween. The electrodes (70, 74) are structured to create an electric field therebetween. A magnetic field generator is structured to create a magnetic field oriented generally perpendicular to said electric field. An ion beam source (80) for injecting ions (82) into the annulus (76) for travel therearound is provided, and an ion exit (100) for discharge of the ions traveling in said annulus is provided with an ion collector (102) being disposed adjacent to the ion exit (100). The circular cycloidal mass spectrometer may be structured to provide, under the influence of the electric field and magnetic field, a path of travel (90, 92, 94, 96) for the ion beams, which is similar to either epicycloidal or hypocycloidal curves. If desired, elliptical shapes or other suitable shapes providing a nonlinear path of ion travel may be employed. A filter may be interposed between said outer electrode and said inner electrode.

    摘要: A method of processing Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry (FTMS) data comprises carrying out a Fourier Transform of a part of a time domain transient and identifying from that transformed data signal peaks representative of the presence of ions. Once the peaks have been identified, the full transient is then transformed, and the peaks identified in the partial transient transform are used to locate true peaks in the transformed full transient. The number of 'false' peaks resulting from random noise has been found to correlate to the resolution, so that using a partial transient to identify true peaks reduces the risk of false peaks being included; nevertheless this information can then be applied to the full data set when transformed. As an alternative, different parts of the full data set can be transformed and then correlated; because any noise will be random, false peaks should occur at different places in the two partial transforms.

    摘要: A quantity of electrons that will be used in the ionization event in an FTICR MS is preprogrammed. When the number of electrons produced reaches that number, the electron beam is turned off. This approach assures that the same number of electrons are used for every measurement and eliminates the variations due to fundamental characteristics of the electron source and the variations in temperature due to changing ambient conditions.

    摘要: Tailored excitation of ions in a mass spectrometer is obtained by using an excitation signal which comprises at least one signal having the form of a sinc function modulated sine wave. The sinc modulated sine wave has a magnitude function in the frequency domain in the form of a rectangular function centered at the frequency of the sine wave and having a width determined by the width of the sinc function. Plural sinc modulated sine wave signals can be applied to the ion trap of the spectrometer, with the various signals having different sine wave frequencies, to provide a tailored excitation spectrum without the need for extended computation.

    摘要: The phase-scrambled frequency spectrum (181) is inverse Fourier transformed (182) to produce the final time domain waveform (183) which is used to generate the electric field (177) which excites the ions in an ion cyclotron resonance cell (101). In the iterative method of the invention, the desired frequency spectrum (181) is phase scrambled such that all frequencies are not in phase in any point in time, an inverse Fourier transform (182) is performed on the phase scrambled frequency spectrum (181) and the result multipled by a window function (185). The time domain waveform (183) is forward Fourier transformed (187) to produce an output spectrum which is compared to a reference spectrum (188) to provide correction factors which are used to predistort the magnitude of the final frequency spectrum (189) the steps are repeated until the output frequency spectrum (187) is sufficiently close to the reference spectrum (188) whereafter the time domain waveform (183) corresponding to that output frequency spectrum (187) is applied as the excitation signal.

    摘要: Gaseous ions trapped within an analyzer cell (10) of an ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer are excited into resonance by a swept radio-frequency electric field having an envelope of trapezoidal shape. The envelope includes an onset region which ramps linearly from a zero level to a non-zero constant-amplitude level, a constant-amplitude region having the non-zero constant-amplitude level, and a termination region which ramps linearly from the constant-amplitude level to the zero level. The field has a generally constant-amplitude power spectrum and imparts relatively uniform energy to ions having natural cyclotron frequencies of interest.

    摘要: A gaseous sample for mass spectroscopy analysis is introduced into an ion resonance cell (16) within an evacuated chamber (12). An electron beam (32) is passed through the cell to ionize the gas. A magnetic field (B) is applied along a first direction within the cell and a static electric field is applied along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The combined action of the magnetic and static electric fields confine the ions and cause them to orbit. An alternating electric field is created within the cell to excite ions having mass-to-charge ratios within a predetermined range. A time domain signal produced by the excited ions is detected and digitized. The digital samples of the time domain electrical signal are transformed into frequency domain data by linear prediction using a linear least-squares procedure. The resultant frequency domain data contains information about the mass of the different types of ions present in the cell and the relative number of each type.
