Abstract

This paper describes how a mass spectrometer head and ion current amplifier system which has been calibrated as a partial pressure gauge in the high vacuum region, may have that calibration extended so that it can be used in the ultrahigh vacuum region. The technique is based on the measurement of the isotope ratio of the calibration gas. The paper also reports on the application of this technique to a particular instrument.
