    • The present invention provides a mass spectrometer having an ion lens capable of transporting an ion having a large mass to charge ratio with a high level of ion-passing efficiency even under a low-vacuum atmosphere. In conventional atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometers or similar mass spectrometers, applying an excessively high voltage to the ion lens undesirably causes an electric discharge. Therefore, the passing efficiency for an ion having a large mass to charge ratio cannot be adequately improved, which leads to a poor detection sensitivity. To solve this problem, the mass spectrometer according to the present invention includes a voltage controller (21) that controls a variable radiofrequency (RF) voltage generator (24) so that both the amplitude and the frequency of the RF voltage applied to the lens electrodes of an ion lens (5) are changed according to the mass to charge ratio of an ion to be analyzed. This control enables the ion lens (5) to focus an ion and transport it to the subsequent stage with a high level of passing efficiency even in the case of analyzing an ion having a large mass to charge ratio. Thus, the detection sensitivity is improved. The aforementioned control is conducted on the basis of the control data stored in a voltage control data storage (22). These data are obtained in advance by a measurement of a sample containing a substance having a known mass to charge ratio, in which the intensity of the signal of an ion detector is maintained while the analysis conditions are changed.
    • 本发明提供一种质谱仪,其具有能够即使在低真空气氛下也能以高水平的离子通过效率将具有大质荷比的离子输送的离子透镜。 在传统的大气压电离质谱仪或类似的质谱仪中,对离子透镜施加过高的电压会导致放电。 因此,不能充分提高质荷比大的离子的通过效率,导致检测灵敏度差。 为了解决这个问题,根据本发明的质谱仪包括控制可变射频(RF)电压发生器(24)的电压控制器(21),使得施加到透镜电极的RF电压的幅度和频率 的离子透镜(5)根据要分析的离子的质荷比而改变。 这种控制使得离子透镜(5)能够聚焦离子并且即使在分析具有大质荷比的离子的情况下也能以高水平的通过效率将其输送到后续阶段。 因此,提高了检测灵敏度。 上述控制是根据存储在电压控制数据存储器(22)中的控制数据进行的。 通过测量包含具有已知质荷比的物质的样品,预先获得这些数据,其中在分析条件改变的同时保持离子检测器的信号强度。
