    摘要: The invention is directed to mass spectrometer comprising an extraction system for secondary ions. The system comprises: an inner spherical deflecting sector; an outer spherical deflecting sector; a deflecting gap formed between the sectors; a housing in which the sectors are arranged. The deflecting sectors (42; 44) are biased at retarding gap (46). The system further comprises an exit disc electrode with an exit through hole centered about the exit axis, the intermediate electrode being biased at an intermediate voltage between the voltage of the housing and the average voltage of the sectors. The trajectories of the secondary ions become more parallel to the exit axis and become closer to the axis.

    摘要: The invention is directed to mass spectrometer comprising an extraction system for secondary ions. The system comprises: an inner spherical deflecting sector; an outer spherical deflecting sector; a deflecting gap formed between the sectors; a housing in which the sectors are arranged. The deflecting sectors are biased at retarding potentials in order to reduce the energy of the ion beam entering the deflecting gap. The system further comprises an exit disc electrode which is biased at the midvoltage of the average voltage of the sectors, and two side plates both facing the spherical sectors, the side plates being biased in order to create an electrostatic field perpendicular to the exit axis.

    摘要: An electromagnet assembly suitable for mass spectrometer comprising one yoke; and two pole pieces; the pole pieces being comprised in a vacuum chamber and being separated from each other by a pole piece gap defining a passage for the charged particles to be deflected; the yoke forming a bridge over the two pole pieces thus defining a magnetic circuit. The electromagnet assembly further comprises one electrical circuit for generating a magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit, the electrical circuit being included in the yoke. The electromagnet assembly is remarkable in that the pole pieces are electrically insulated from the electrical circuit and from the yoke by first electrical insulating means and are electrically insulated from the vacuum chamber.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a compact and portable mass spectrometer device comprising a source of ions, a non-scanning magnetic sector for separating ions originating at the source of ions according to their mass-to-charge ratios, and a detection means. The magnetic sector comprises an ion entrance plane and at least two ion exit planes, which allow to optimize the resolving power of the mass spectrometer for specific mass-to charge ratio sub-ranges.
