    • The present invention relates generally to a multi-reflecting time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR TOF MS). To improve mass resolving power of a planar MR TOF MS, a spatially isochronous and curved interface may be used for ion transfer in and out of the MR TOF analyzer. One embodiment comprises a planar grid-free MR TOF MS with periodic lenses in the field-free space, a linear ion trap for converting ion flow into pulses and a C-shaped isochronous interface made of electrostatic sectors. The interface allows transferring ions around the edges and fringing fields of the ion mirrors without introducing significant time spread. The interface may also provide energy filtering of ion packets. The non-correlated turn-around time of ion trap converter may be reduced by using a delayed ion extraction from the ion trap and excessive ion energy is filtered in the curved interface.
    • 本发明一般涉及多反射飞行时间质谱仪(MR TOF MS)。 为了提高平面MR TOF MS的质量分辨能力,可以使用空间等时和弯曲界面来进出MR TOF分析仪的离子传输。 一个实施例包括在无场空间中具有周期性透镜的平面无栅MR TOF MS,用于将离子流转换成脉冲的线性离子阱和由静电扇区构成的C形等时接口。 该界面允许在离子镜的边缘和边缘场附近转移离子,而不会引入显着的时间扩散。 界面还可以提供离子包的能量过滤。 离子阱转换器的非相关周转时​​间可以通过使用来自离子阱的延迟离子提取而减少,并且过多的离子能量在弯曲界面中被过滤。

    • To provide comprehensive MS—MS analysis, a time-nested separation is employed using two time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometers. Parent ions are separated in a slow and long TOF1, operating at low ion energy (1 to 100eV), and fragment ions are mass analyzed in a fast and short TOF2, operating at much higher keV energy. A low energy fragmentation cell between TOF1 and TOF2 is tailored to accelerate fragmentation and dampening steps, mostly by shortening the cell and employing higher gas pressure. Slow separation in TOF1 becomes possible with an introduction of novel TOF1 analyzers. Higher performance is expected with the use of novel hybrid TOF1 analyzers, combining radio frequency (RF) and quadratic DC fields. An RF field retains low-energy ions within a TOF1 analyzer, while a quadratic DC field improves resolution by compensating for a large relative energy spread.
    • 为了提供综合的MS-MS分析,使用两个飞行时间(TOF)质谱仪进行时间嵌套分离。 母体离子在慢和长的TOF 1中分离,以低离子能(1至100eV)运行,碎片离子在快和短的TOF 2中进行质量分析,操作在高得多的keV能量。 TOF 1和TOF 2之间的低能量破碎细胞被定制以加速碎裂和阻尼步骤,主要是通过缩短电池并采用更高的气体压力。 使用新型TOF 1分析仪引入TOF 1中的慢速分离。 通过使用新型混合TOF 1分析仪,结合射频(RF)和二次直流场,可以期待更高的性能。 RF场保持TOF 1分析仪内的低能离子,而二次DC场通过补偿大的相对能量扩展来提高分辨率。

    • A mass spectrometer instrument for determining the molecular weight of labile molecules of biological importance, in particular heavy molecules, such as proteins, peptides or DNA oligomers, is disclosed. The instrument includes a MALDI ion source that is enclosed in a chamber with an inlet for admitting a gas and an ion sampling aperture for limiting gas flow from the chamber. The elevated pressure of the source in the range from 0.1 to 10 torr causes low energy collisions between the gas and the ions that can cause rapid collisional cooling of the excited ions, thereby improving the stability of the produced ions. The formation of clusters of ions (e.g., protein ions) with matrix materials is broken without fragmenting the ions by increasing the downstream gas temperature to between 150 and 250° C. Operating the source at laser energy at least two times higher than the threshold value of ion formation and using a high repetition rate laser significantly improves sensitivity of analysis and speed of data acquisition.

    • A highly sensitive multiple stage (MSn) mass spectrometer is disclosed, capable of eliminating losses of ions during the isolation stage. Ions of interest are isolated (by m/z value) without rejecting ions of other m/z values, permitting the selected ions to be dissociated, while the rest of the ion population is available for subsequent isolation, dissociation and analysis of fragment ions. One preferred instrument includes a pulsed ion source coupled with a linear array of mass selective ion trap devices, at least one trap being coupled to an external ion detector. Each ion trap is configured with a storing cell for ion trapping interspersed between a pair of guarding cells, all aligned along their z axis. Radio frequency (RF) and direct current (DC) voltages are applied to electrodes of the ion trap device to retain ions within the storing cells. Each trapping cell has a sub-region in which the dynamical motion of the ion exhibits m/z-dependent resonance frequencies along the z direction, allowing the ion motion to be selectively excited by m/z value. The AC voltages can be combined with time-resolved changes in the applied DC voltages to enable individual trapping cell to be switched between ion trapping, mass selecting and ion fragmenting modes. Ions may be selectively transferred between ions traps, and selectively dissociated within each trap to enable a higher sensitivity MSn operation. Various ion trapping devices are disclosed, namely, harmonic linear traps, Paul traps, and quadrupole traps.

    • The disclosed apparatus includes a multi-reflecting time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF MS) and an orthogonal accelerator. To improve the duty cycle of the ion injection at a low repetition rate dictated by a long flight in the MR-TOF MS, multiple measures may be taken. The incoming ion beam and the accelerator may be oriented substantially transverse to the ion path in the MR-TOF, while the initial velocity of the ion beam is compensated by tilting the accelerator and steering the beam for the same angle. To further improve the duty cycle of any multi-reflecting or multi-turn mass spectrometer, the beam may be time-compressed by modulating the axial ion velocity with an ion guide. The residence time of the ions in the accelerator may be improved by trapping the beam within an electrostatic trap. Apparatuses with a prolonged residence time in the accelerator provide improvements in both sensitivity and resolution.

    • An imbalanced radio frequency (RF) field creates a retarding barrier near the exit aperture of a multipole ion guide, in combination with the extracting DC field such that the barrier provides an m/z dependent cut of ion sampling. Contrary to the prior art, the mass dependent sampling provides a well-conditioned ion beam suitable for other mass spectrometric devices. The mass selective sampling is suggested for improving duty cycle of o-TOF MS, for injecting ions into a multi-reflecting TOF MS in a zoom mode, for parallel MS-MS analysis in a trap-TOF MS, as well as for moderate mass filtering in fragmentation cells and ion reactors. With the aid of resonant excitation, the mass selective ion sampling is suggested for mass analysis.
