Abstract
In this article we discuss some results that we have been able to achieve in the development of hyperboloid mass analyzers for “VEGA” and “Mars-96” space programs, for the “Mir” orbital station, and also for a mobile GCMS complex. We present several different electrode systems that increase the functional capabilities of hyperboloid mass spectrometers. We also discuss the key principles of hyperboloid mass analyzer optimal design and some of the interesting technical solutions that enabled us to develop light and reliable analyzers with high thermal and mechanical stability. We describe some of the conceptual analyzers that we have developed: an analyzer based on an axially symmetric ion trap; an ion trap with elliptical electrodes; an ion trap with a cone-shaped endcap electrode (three-dimensional monopole); an axially symmetric ion trap energy analyzer; a light multiple mass filter with hyperboloid electrodes. The results of our experimental studies are also included.
