摘要:
The present invention is directed to a bipolar ion detector capable of detecting both positive and negative ions in a single configuration. The invention uses either a single microchannel plates or a stack of microchannel plates to convert the ion signal into an amplified electron signal. Circuitry allows the anode to be biased (floated) to a positive high voltage and efficiently couple the signal from the anode out to recording electronics at ground.
摘要:
A mass spectrometer is provided herein and is configured to have two ionization sources, in which a first ionization source, such as MALDI, ESI and the like, which is capable of providing in addition to ions a set of normally intractable desorbed neutrals that are ionized by a second EI source coupled with the first source.
摘要:
A sonic transducer includes a transducer body and a drive element coupled to the transducer body to produce a sonic output in response to an applied electrical input. A sense element is coupled to the sonic drive element and is configured to provide an electrical feedback output related to the sonic output. The electrical feedback output is adapted to be used to control the applied electrical input to the sonic drive element so as to control the energy delivered to the working area or tip of the transducer.
