摘要
A mass gate allows transmitting a selected mass in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer and to block other masses. The conventional stopping-potential mass gate does not discriminate against spontaneous fragments, which are generated in the drift tube. We present a simple improved version of a mass gate, which discriminates against fragments by using the fact that their kinetic energy is lower than that of the parent ion.
