Abstract

A quadrupole mass spectrometer is based on the original instruments developed by Paul and co-workers [4.1–4.3] where the selection of the ions is carried out, according to their mass to charge ratio (m/q), in a quadrupole rf electric field so that only ions of a defined mass will reach a suitable detector. Mechanically it consists of four rod-shaped electrodes with an hyperbolic cross-section. Figure 4.1 shows the end-on view of this type of analyzer. The opposite electrodes are electrically connected and the voltage applied consists of two simultaneous components: one is a constant voltage U and the other one is a radio frequency (rf) V 0cos(ωt). The system of coordinates that we assume and the values of the potentials on the four electrodes is also shown in the figure.
