Abstract[English]
Disclosed are assemblies, systems, methods, and other implementations, including an ion lens assembly that includes one or more focusing apertures for receiving ions and directing the received ions along an ion path into a time-of-flight mass analyzer. The lens assembly includes a last one of said one or more focusing apertures positioned at an end of the ion path to receive the ions propagating through the ion path and to generate a focused ion beam, and at least a first steering element positioned to receive the focused ion beam and configured to steer the focused ion beam relative to a downstream pusher electrode of the time-of-flight mass analyzer.[French]
Sont divulgués des ensembles, des systèmes, des procédés et d'autres modes de réalisation, comprenant un ensemble lentille ionique qui comprend une ou plusieurs ouvertures de focalisation pour recevoir des ions et diriger les ions reçus le long d'un trajet d'ions dans un analyseur de masse à temps de vol. L'ensemble lentille comprend au moins une des ouvertures de focalisation positionnées à une extrémité du trajet d'ions pour recevoir les ions se propageant à travers le trajet d'ions et pour générer un faisceau d'ions focalisé, et au moins un premier élément de direction positionné pour recevoir le faisceau d'ions focalisé et conçu pour diriger le faisceau d'ions focalisé vers une électrode de poussée aval de l'analyseur de masse à temps de vol.
