Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide for charge state control of multiply-charged anions in a front end, high pressure ion guide. In some example aspects, a mass spectrometer system is provided comprising a first vacuum chamber (121) maintained at a pressure above about 500 mTorr. At least one ion guide (106) is disposed within the first vacuum chamber, the at least one ion guide comprising a plurality of rods extending along a central longitudinal axis. A controller (193) is configured to adjust an amplitude of an RF voltage signal provided to the plurality of rods so as to alternatively operate the ion guide in a first mode of operation with a lower amplitude of the RF voltage signal so as to reduce the likelihood of charge reduction by electron detachment so as to substantially maintain the isotopic distribution of the ions during transmission of ions through the ion guide, and a second mode of operation with a higher amplitude of the RF voltage signal so as to increase the likelihood of electron detachment from ions being transmitted therethrough.

Abstract: A circuit and method for providing high-voltage radio-frequency (RF) energy to an instrument at multiple frequencies includes a plurality of inputs each configured to receive an RF voltage signal oscillating at a corresponding frequency, and a step-up circuit for generating magnified RF voltage signals based on the received RF voltage signals. The step-up circuit includes an LC network operable to isolate the RF voltage signals at the plurality inputs from one another while preserving a voltage magnification from each input to a common output at each of the corresponding frequencies.

Abstract: An ion optical arrangement (1) for use in a mass spectrometer comprises electrodes (11, 12, 14) comprising a multipole arrangement defining an ion optical axis, and a voltage source for providing voltages to the electrodes to produce electric fields. The ion optical arrangement is configured for producing a radio frequency electric focusing field for focusing ions on the ion optical axis. The radio frequency electric focusing field has a varying frequency so as to reduce any mass dependence of ion trajectories through the ion optical arrangement. The ion optical arrangement may further be configured for producing a static electric field in response to a DC bias voltage applied to the multipole arrangement. A superimposed varying electric field may be produced by superimposing an AC voltage upon the DC bias voltage.

Abstract: A mass spectrometer includes an ion source, an ion guide, a quadrupole mass filter, a detector, DC and RF power sources, and a voltage control device for controlling an acceleration voltage by controlling the power source. The voltage controller controls the acceleration voltage such that it is increased as the mass-to-charge ratio of ions to be measured is increased within a control region. The control region is surrounded, having one coordinate axis representing the mass-to-charge ratio of the ions passing the ion guide and another axis representing the acceleration voltage applied to the ion guide, by a line representing a lower limit of a stable region where the ions pass the ion guide stably, a line representing an ion mobility of the ions, an upper side representing an upper limit of the acceleration voltage, and a lower side representing a value at which the acceleration voltage is zero.
