Discrete dynode multipliers

With the exception of an ICR-MS, nearly aU mass spectrometers use electron multipliers for ion detection. There are three main classes of electron multipliers discrete dynode multipliers, continuous dynode electron multipliers (CDEM), also known as channel electron multipfiers (GEM), and microchannel plate (MCP) electron multipliers, also known as multichannel plate electron multipliers. Though different in detail, aU three work on the same physical principle. An additional detector used in mass spectrometers is the Faraday cup. [Pg.180]

The discrete dynode multiplier is composed of a series of coppertberylium plates between which the electrons cascade. [Pg.99]

While the principles of operation are similar, the structures of discrete-dynode multipliers and CEMs are quite different. Figure 3.1 illustrates each type schematically. [Pg.118]

Discrete-dynode multipliers consist of an array of separate dynodes with high secondary electron yield surfaces. CEMs consist of a lead-silicate glass tube processed to have a resistive inner surface with a suitably high secondary electron emission to multiply electrons. The following discussion is restricted to discrete-dynode detectors, which are the most common type used in ICP-MS. However most of the principles described can be readily applied to CEMs. [Pg.118]

At present, TOF mass analyzers are not widely used in ICP-MS. However, there are commercial systems available (as described in Chapter 2) and the following brief description of detectors used in TOF-MS applications is included for completeness. There are two main types of detectors used in TOF-MS applications microchannel plates (MCPs) and fast discrete-dynode multipliers. [Pg.140]

In many applications, discrete dynode electron multipliers have been replaced by a less costly continuous dynode design. These conicalshaped devices (Fig. 11.14) are fabricated from resistive glass (doped... [Pg.365]

There is another design of electron multiplier for which the discrete dynodes are replaced by one continuous dynode. A type of continuous-dynode electron multipliers (CDEM), which is called a channeltron, is made from a lead-doped glass with a curved tube shape that has good secondary emission properties (Figure 3.3). As the walls of the tube have... [Pg.177]

Figure 7-12 presents a conceptual diagram of the operation of a discrete dynode electron multiplier. When an ion strikes the first dynode, it causes the ejection of one or more electrons ( secondary electrons ) from the dynode surface. The electron is accelerated toward the second dynode by a voltage difference of -100 V. Upon strildng the second dynode, this electron causes the ejection of additional electrons, typically 2 or 3 in number. The second group of electrons is then accelerated toward the third d)mode, and upon strildng the third dynode, causes the ejection of several more electrons, The process is repeated through a chain of dynodes, num-... [Pg.180]
