Abstract
In a monopole mass spectrometer the conventional angle electrode and hyperbolic cylindrical electrode are replaced by an electrode consisting of a hollow or solid circular cylindrical electrode surrounded by a hollow square cylindrical electrode. This provides the possibility of dividing the circular cylindrical electrode into 2, 3 or 4 parts by an insulating structure which may or may not be vacuum sealed to the surrounding square cylindrical electrode, thereby enabling a number of ion beams to be mass filtered simultaneously by only two analysing electrodes. It also offers the possibility of utilising the hollow square cylindrical electrode as a portion of the vacuum containment vessel for the mass spectrometer.

The monopole mass spectrometer, originally proposed by von Zahn (U. VONZAHN, Monopole Spec- FIG. 2 more than is necessary for an understanding of the present invention.
In-FIG. 2 a central circular section cylindrical electrode is indicated at 1 and this is supported in the center of a square cylindrical box electrode 2 the space between the electrodes being evacuated, At one end of the assembly is a'suitable means for ionizing and inject ing a gaseous sample into four channels of the fourfold monopole structure, which are constituted by the spaces defined between the cylindrical rod electrode and the four corners of the box electrode 2. A suitable trometer, A New Electric Field'Mass Spectrometer,
Rev. Sci. Inst., 34, (1963), 1-4) and the device which is termed conventional in this specification, has analyzing electrodes which consist of an angle electrode A and a hyperbolic cylindrical electrode B connected to a source C of potential of, for example, the form g(t) =-U -Vcos t as shown in FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings. In the mode of operation commonly employed the angle electrode A is held at electrically zero, or earth, potential whilst the hyperbolic cylindrical electrode B is driven by a constant potential to which has been added a sinusoidal potential. Alternatively,
the hyperbolic cylindrical electrode can be supplied with any other suitably periodic high frequency waveform.
FIG. 2 shows a fourfold monopole mass spectrometer in a purely diagrammatic form illustrating the use of an electrode configuration similar to that shown in FIG. 3 and described below. As the present invention is concerned purely with the configuration of the analyzing electrodes and as the structure and functioning of mass it is not proposed to describe the arrangement shown in time varying voltage generator for exciting the cylindrical rod electrode 1 is indicated at 4 and 5 indicates a vacuum sealed electrical feed-through through which connection is made to the electrode 1. 6, 7, 8, and 9 represent the ion beams to be analyzed. Four Faraday cup collectors 10, 11, 12 and 13 serve to detect the stable ion currents in each of the four monopole channels of the fourfold monopole structure which originate from the ionfbeams 6, 7, 8 and 9-. The output from this latter is led by means of a vacuum sealed electrical feed-through 16 to a suitable current measuring instrument 14 such as an electrometer amplifier. The portion trodes of the monopole mass spectrometer can be extended with resulting improvements in performance and/or increases in versatility and flexibility, thereby leading to a new class of monopole device..lnherent in the evolution of this new class is the approximation of the hyperbolic cylindrical electrode by a circular cylindrical electrode of a suitable diameter. This approximation is common place for the quadrupole mass spectrometer. Having made this approximation the angle .electrode A of FIG. 1 can be extended into a hollow square cylinder as shown, for example in FIG. 3,
, thereby causing the circular cylindrical, or rod, electrode 17 to be shared in common by the four angle electrodes l8, 19, 20 and 21 so formed. This creates, with only two analysing electrodes, a structure through which four ion beams can be mass filtered simultaneously as will be appreciated from a consideration of FIG. 2. When these four beams are fed from a common ion source such as 3 of FIG. 2 and are terminated by a common ion detector (Faraday cup collectors 10, ll, 12 and 13 of FIG. 2) a monopole-based mass spectrometer is produced which has a sensitivity of four times that of the conventional monopole mass spectrometer.
In addition to improved sensitivity a further feature of the structure just described, as with the following elaborations thereon, is the possibility of using the surrounding square cylindrical electrode as a portion of the vacuum containment vessel for the mass spectrometer, as is the case in the arrangement shown in FIG. 2, thus leading to an analyzing structure of physically small dimensions. An outcome of this is the ease with which the structure may be pumped.
Another simplifying feature is the possibility of making the rod electrode hollow thereby allowing electrical connections to the ion source to be carried within it. This would permit all wiring to the device to be made via a rear mounted plate as is usual for present day quadrupole devices.
Two elaborations of the above structure are shown in FIG. 4a and 4b in both of which the single rod electrode 22 is segmented into four quadrants separated by and mounted upon a cruciform electrically insulating arrangement 23 the extremities of which are vacuum sealed to the box electrode 24. In the first configuration the insulating structure is shown extended so that the four monopole structures formed by the rod and box electrodes 22 and 24 may filter beams originating in four ion sources which in turn may be sampling either four separate inlets or one common inlet. Since the four quadrants of the rod electrode are electrically isolated, each monopole structure may be tuned to filter different masses by suitably adjusting either the magnitude of the periodic high frequency potentials (and DC. potentials should they be used) applied to the quadrants, which is to be preferred, or alternatively the frequencies of the periodic potentials. Four separate sources of potential g1 (t) to g4 (t) are indicated in the drawing.
Inthe second configuration, shown in FIG. 4b the four quadrants of the single rod electrodeare again electrically insulated, however the insulation 26 does not extend to the walls of the hollow box electrode 27, thereby not requiring vacuum sealing at the intersections. Since the property of strong focussing will ensure that ions being transmitted by a quadrupole-based instrument will be constrained by electric forces largely to the dielectric region between the electrodes, each quadrant may be excited by suitably differing waveforms from sources gl(t) g4(t) thereby allowing the device to analyze one common sample for four differing mass numbers.
The configuration shown in FIGS. a and 5b are subject to the same comments as set out above and represent variations which may be found desirable in certain applications. In these figures the broken lines at the outer extremities of the insulators 28 and 29 indicate that these may either be continued to the hollow box electrodes 30 and 31 respectively and vacuum sealed to them or not as desired.
As is illustrated in FIGS. 6a and 6b all the single electrode configurations shown in FIG. 6 or any of those described above may be extended or duplicated to any desired extent.
