    Abstract: In a mass spectrometry system, a method of operating a processing section, for example a collision cell, is provided. The method is based on the realization that some interfering ions after collision will have significantly lower kinetic energy than desired analyte ions. These interfering ions can be ions originating from the source, or product ions formed by reaction with gas particles, or ions produced by other processes within the cell. Significantly, these interfering ions can have lower kinetic energies, as compared to desired analyte ions, but this energy differential disappears, or is much reduced, at the exit of the collision cell, rendering post-cell energy discrimination less effective. The invention provides a field within the cell to discriminate against the interfering ions based on their lower kinetic energy.

    Abstract: A sample (2) is mounted in a sample holder (13) with a surface (3) of the sample (2) normal to the axis (4) of a pair of truncated electrically conductive frusto-cones (5, 6) which are coaxial and whose apexes meet at the sample surface (3). An exciting source (7) is mounted within the inner cone (5), which is solid and is maintained at ground potential to serve as a first electrode. The outer cone (6) is made of high transparency metallic mesh and is maintained at a positive potential +V (e.g. 1000 v) with respect to the sample surface (3), to serve as a second electrode. These components of the spectrometer (1) are contained within a vacuum system (15), and the potentials are applied to the cones (5, 6) by a biassing means (14). Electrons generated where the beam from the exciting source (7) strikes the sample are emitted into 2.pi. steradians towards an entrance annulus (8). A small fraction of these electrons enter the entrance annulus (8) and find themselves in an electric field which deflects them towards the mesh of the outer cone (6). Electrons of a fixed kinetic energy leaving the sample (2) and entering the annulus (8) are accelerated towards the outer cone (6) on trajectories which will intersect. Those electrons that pass through the outer cone (6) enter a region of field-free space, in which their straight-line trajectories intersect on the surface of a third cone (11, FIG. 2), which is the focal locus of the spectrometer. As electrons of fixed kinetic energy enter the spectrometer through the annulus (8) between the cones (5, 6) they are focused into a ring on the focal locus.

    Abstract: A spectrometer objective is composed of a short focal length, asymmetrical objective lens comprising an integrated electrostatic opposing field spectrometer and a single-stage deflection system arranged within the magnetic lens. Since the deflection of primary electrons occurs within the spectrometer objective, the space for a two-state deflection system employed in conventional systems between a condenser lens and an objective lens can be eliminated. The extremely-short structural length of the electron beam measuring apparatus which is thereby obtainable, in turn, has a beneficial effect on the influence of the lateral Boersch effect on probe diameter, this influence increasing with the length of the electron-optical beam path.

    Abstract: Process of and apparatus for measuring the energy loss of electrons in collisions with gaseous material, e.g., gaseous sample atoms and molecules for the purpose of characterizing (identifying, discriminating between or determining the molecular structure of) the atoms or molecules by the electron energy loss spectrum are provided. A current of low energy electrons is introduced into a region defined by being enclosed in a fine wire grid. The sample atoms or molecules are also in this region. The sample may or may not be diluted with helium gas. Electrons that have collided with the sample or with helium attempt to diffuse from this region out toward a collector electrode whose potential may be varied during the course of obtaining a spectrum. In general, if the kinetic energy of an electron is sufficient for it to surmount the potential hill (in the gravitational plot sense) or electrostatic potential between the collector and the grid, it will eventually be absorbed by the collector, since the area of the collector is purposely made enormously greater than that of the grid. If the kinetic energy of the electron is insufficient to reach the collector, i.e., is insufficient to surmount the potential hill or electrostatic potential between the potential of the grid and the potential of the collector, the electron is eventually absorbed on the grid. Thus the current to the grid is made up of those electrons that have lost sufficient kinetic energy in collisions with the sample a atoms or molecules that they cannot surmount the electrostatic potential between the grid and collector and reach the collector. The measure of this current as a function of the collector potential, e.g., the derivative of the current to the grid with respect to the collector potential, provides a spectrum of energy loss of the electrons particularly useful in characterizing, i.e., identifying, discriminating between, or determining the molecular structure, of the sample gaseous atoms or molecules.

    Abstract: An ion source generates a heavy-ion beam of uniform ion velocity which is utilized to probe plasmas. The beam is scanned through a plane by deflection plates and the angle of scansion for the beam is magnified by a linear field distribution lens. The ionizing collisions between the scanned beam and the plasma results in a step charge change for the ions. Detectors are provided which are responsive to the ions undergoing a step change in charge to measure electron density of the plasma, space potential of the plasma, and the momentum added by the plasma current.
