Title:
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ION PRODUCTION ENHANCEMENT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006208379
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide an apparatus and a method for efficiently enhancing ions.
An ion source includes a temperature sensor. A heating device and the temperature sensor are operably connected to work as a closed feedback loop to provide gas at a constant, predetermined, temperature to an ionization region. The apparatus and method are also applied to a mass spectrometer system having a matrix-based ion source. They are also applied to ion production using a gas which is heated to a predetermined temperature.
