Section:Abstract
A miniature cylindrical ion trap mass spectrometer is described, and preliminary data are presented. Functionality and performance of laboratory-scale instruments have been maintained to the extent possible in this battery-operated mass spectrometer. Capabilities include tandem mass spectrometry experiments. Custom-designed electronic components include the RF scanning and amplification system, data acquisition components, and lens power supplies, as well as a custom-software application. Direct leak and membrane introduction inlet systems are used for sample introduction. A mass/charge range of 
250 Th with unit mass resolution has been demonstrated.

Andrew Malcolm, Steven Wright, Richard R. A. Syms, Neil Dash, Marc-André Schwab and Alan FinlayAnalytical Chemistry2010 82 (5), 1751-1758Two miniature mass spectrometer systems based on a microengineered quadrupole mass filter have been developed. One of the instruments has a footprint of 27 cm × 20 cm and is intended for laboratory use when space is at a premium. The other is portable and ...

Zhiping Zhang, Ying Peng, Brett J. Hansen, Ivan W. Miller, Miao Wang, Milton L. Lee, Aaron R. Hawkins and Daniel E. AustinAnalytical Chemistry2009 81 (13), 5241-5248We report the design and performance of a novel radio-frequency (RF) ion-trap mass analyzer, the planar Paul trap, in which a quadrupolar potential distribution is made between two electrode plates. Each plate consists of a series of concentric, ...

Zheng Ouyang, Robert J. Noll and R. Graham CooksAnalytical Chemistry2009 81 (7), 2421-2425For field applications, “miniature” and “rapid” have become almost synonymous, yet these small mass spectrometers are not useful if performance is too severely compromised. (To listen to a podcast about this feature, please go to the Analytical Chemistry ...
