Question

In cohesive sentences explain how Quadruple Ion Trap Mass Analyzer works. Illustrate your explanation with a simple but realistic drawing.

What are the differences in 3D vs Linear (2D) Ion Traps?  

Answer 1

e. Ans. The quadrupole ion trap (QIT) consists of too hyperbolic electrodes serving as and caps and a ring electrode that repraces two of the Unlar quadrupole sods it. it could theoritically be oblined by rotating a lineal quadrupole with hyperbolic rods through 360° Thus a section through the og plance of QFT closely resembles that of the entrance of lentar quadrupole with hyperbolic rods. este Crouvekade. I ? The end caps are electrically connected and the DC and RF potentials are applied between them and the ring electrode. The working principle of the ait is based on creating stable trajectories for ions of certain miz or m/z range while removing unwanted ions by colliding them with walls of in walls or by axial gection from the trap due to their unstable trajectories.
