The equations of motion of a single ion in the energy-mass analyzer VUR in a cylindrical coordinate system have the form:

where m is the mass of a charged particle, e is the electron charge, C is the speed of light.

Find conditions on the parameters, EzE0in which ion included in the scope of the analyzing field at the point with radius R with velocity Vφ0at Vz0=Vr0=0, it remains on the trajectory of radius R in the future with the passage of the analyzer.

From equation (1) implies that

The tension of the radial electric field E0thus determines the energy of the charged particles W0moving along a circle of radius R.

Using equation (3), define the azimuthal velocity

such that the movement along the Z-axis was absent. From equations (4) and (5) is the ratio:

which shows that at fixed E0and ions of different masses will remain on the main path (radius R), if

For positioning on the main trajectory of the ion mass miyou must change the Ezin accordance with equation (7) - see figure 2.

and from equation (10), we obtain the following relationship:

Consider the case where the deviation of W from W0and m of m0small. The initial variations of the velocity dχ/dτ and dξ/dτ at time τ=0 is also small. Equations (8-10) in this case will describe the trajectory near the main path:

W=W0+δW, m=m0 +δm,

χ=1+χ*.

At the moment τ=0 in the first order of smallness with,and derivative dχ*/dτ, dξ/dτ from equations (8-12) will receive:

Given that the first order of smallness

equations (13) and (14) recorded:

The initial conditions for equations (15), (16) have the form:

χ*(0)=0, ξ(0)=0,

System (15-16) two linear second-order equations will reduce to a single linear equation of the fourth order:

The initial conditions for equations (17) have the form:

χ*(0)=0;

Enter the function. For it will get homogeneous equation:

The General solution of equation (19) has the form:

ρ(φ)=C1eγφ+C2e-γφ+C3cos(ωφ)+C4sin(ωφ).

The constant of integration C1C2C3With4determine from the initial conditions (20):

Taking into account these results for the ion trajectories we obtain the following equation:

We introduce the notationwhich will get the following expression:

As can be seen from equation (21), ion crosses the trajectory of radius R (about χ*=0) if b1=0 and b2=0, which can be carried out (see figure 3) at specific values of the quantities δm/δW and U/V, namely whenandConsider particles that satisfy these conditions. Then their paths will get the following equation:

Whenreturn to χ*(φ)=0 (radius R) is atIn the case ofthe selected particles are focused in the following angle:

</>

The focus points of ions withparticles withdepart from the provisions χ*(φ)=0 at the maximum distance equal to. This means that the receiver of ions in the energy-mass analyzer should be placed at the turning point of the trajectory of the ion on the angle φ1=π/ω, where the target ions with δm=δW=0 focus, and ions with δm≠0 maximum depart from the main trajectory χ*(φ)=0.

Let us turn to the case when b1≠0, but the initial transverse velocities U and V, to simplify the calculations, but the demonstration effect, is equal to zero and, hence, b2=0. For ions with a giventheir trajectories are determined by the value of δW/W Let the value of δW/W=-Am. Various δW/W correspond to the trajectories of the two classes. When δW/W<-Amthe value of b1<0, and ions, not returning to χ*=0, leave when φ→∞ to -∞ for χ*. However, when δW/W>Andmthe value of b1>0, and ions of a certain number of times back to χ*=0, and if φ→∞ goes to +∞ for χ*. You'll definitely find such value of δW/W, which lies within theand in which the trajectory of the ion withgo through χ*=0 when φ=φ1. This means that the detector will fall ions and other, except for m0and the masses for the separation of ions using only saariluoma the opportunities given set of electromagnetic fields is not enough.

To achieve this goal will involve the interruption of the trajectories of non-target particles on the cylindrical electrodes of the analyzer (channel walls). Find the condition under which ions with masses larger than m0+δm (δm>0), hit the wall, before reaching the plane of the detection of particles φ=φ1. Position the conductive cylindrical surfaces between which creates a radial electric field at distancesandConsider this ion trajectory at some, as yet unknown δW/W=-Akwhen the trajectory lies necessarily higher thanMoreover, it concernsfor any φ=φ0In addition, let the trajectory passes through the pointthat φ=φ1. Then the particles with a fixed value ofnever falls on the focal plane φ=φ1. Indeed, when δW/W<-Akions are dying on the surfacea if δW/W>Andkthey go above the critical trajectory δW/W=-Akand die on the surface. Ions with masses greater than the selected mass m, are also found on the electrodes.

Thus, for a fixed ratiothe ADO to determine the critical path, for what it is necessary to find values of Akχcand φ0. There are three equations:

χ*(φ=φ1)=χc;

χ*(φ=φ0)=-χC.

We write these equations using (21), when U=V=0:

To solve system (24-26) use the smallness of the parameterγ/ω; & Phi;0<<1. Folding (24) and (26), we obtain:

Decomposing in equation (25) sin(ωφ0) and sinh(γφ0) up to third order for φ0will get:

From equation (27)in turn, we obtain:

Substituting (28) and (29) into equation (24), we find:

Trajectories of particles with mass less than m (δm<0), will be located symmetrically with respect to the trajectories of ions with masses of large m (δm>0). The symmetry of the trajectories will be implemented relative to the line χ*(φ)=0. Therefore, the formula (30), determining the value of |χc|specifies the distance from χ*(φ)=0 to the channel walls, which killed ions with masses that differ from the m0by an amount greater than |δm|. As a result, the mass analysis of the ions in this device and in the presence of the initial range of energies.

Now Oct the m end of the initial dispersion angle for the analyzed flow of ions. Consider the case where b2≠0, i.eDenoting by S=U(ω2-2)+2V/ε and solving equation (21), we find that in the plane of detection when φ1=π/ω to the value of χ*(φ1) with b1=b2=0 is added to the value ofSo in the presence of angular dispersion of the ion source flow detector did not appear untargeted particles with masses m0+Δm, where |Δm| significantly exceeded |δm|, you need to meet the conditions:

Using the fact that max|U|=max|V|=θ, where θ is the maximum angular variation of the analyzed ion stream from (31) we get the condition on the allowable angular range:

When ε=1 the values of γ and ω is approximately equal respectively to 0.75 and 1.9. Then the condition (32) is modified:

Thus, the claimed energy-mass analyzer provides diagnostics for the masses, at a certain energy and angular spread of the ions of the analyzed stream.

The inventive method is implemented as follows.

The stream of ions with a certain set of masses having different energy enters through the input aperture at the point with radius R when φ=0 in the area of energy-mass analyzer in the range of electric fields: radial the CSO E 0and longitudinal Ez, magnetic field b, directed along the radius. In the absence of the initial angular spread of the ion with initial velocity Vφ0remains on the trajectory of radius R, if he has the energy of W0set value of tension of the radial electric fieldsimilarly the work of Energianalyse Hughes-Rozhanskyi. Movement along the Z-axis (leaving the area of the output aperture; missing on the detector) is excluded by the joint action of the fields Ezand In specifying the speed of the ion passing to the detector,so, how does the classic filter Wines. Ion the other mass will remain on the Central main trajectory (radius R), if the electric field Ezat fixed E0and, is chosen equal to

If the deviation of the mass m of the ion from the values of m0small as the initial variations of the velocities U and V, then under certain values δm/δW and U/V, whenwill be observed spatial focusing of the particles (see figure 3) after turning the ion analyzer angleIn the case ofthe particles are focused at the angle equal to. The focus points ion the in particles withdepart from the equilibrium trajectory for maximum distance equal to.

There may be a chance at some value δW/W, when the trajectory of the ion withwill pass through the focus point particles withand in the detector will fall ions and other, except for m0, mass. To avoid mixing of ions of different masses on the detector in the energy-mass analyzer for this application is used, similarly to the classical filter velocities Wine, abort trajectories of non-target particles (with masses that differ from the m0by an amount greater than |δm|) on the cylindrical electrodes of the analyzer, which are located at a distance from each other equal toAs a result, the mass analysis of the ions in this device and in the presence of the initial range of energies.

If there is a finite initial dispersion of the stream of particles on the corner, untargeted particles do not arrive at the detector when the maximum angular variation of the analyzed ion flow θ, for example, for the case of equal intensities of the radial and longitudinal electric fields does not exceed the value of.

Thus, the claimed energy-mass analyzer provides diagnostics for the masses of the AK in the presence of ions of the analyzed stream energy, and angular spread. For the flow of ions of a single mass analyzer provides measurement of the ion energy distribution.

The inventive device operates as follows.
