Abstract: A mass spectrometer having an elongated rod set, and a method of operating same. The rod set has an entrance end, an exit end and a longitudinal axis. Ions are admitted into the entrance end of the rod set. At least some of the ions are trapped in the rod set by producing a barrier field at an exit member adjacent to the exit end of the rod set and by producing an RF field between the rods of the rod set adjacent at least the exit end of the rod set. The RF and barrier fields interact in an extraction region adjacent to the exit end of the rod set to produce a fringing field. Ions in the extraction region are energized to mass selectively eject at least some ions of a selected mass to charge ratio axially from the rod set past the barrier field. The RF field is a two-dimensional substantially quadrupole field having a quadrupole harmonic with amplitude A<SUB>2</SUB>, an octopole harmonic with amplitude A<SUB>4</SUB>, and a hexadecapole harmonic with amplitude A<SUB>8</SUB>. A<SUB>8 </SUB>is less than A<SUB>4</SUB>, and A<SUB>4 </SUB>is greater than 0.1% of A<SUB>2</SUB>.

Abstract: A mist-spraying apparatus primarily but not exclusively for use in an enclosed space includes an air-blowing mechanism, a spraying mechanism and a control mechanism. The air-blowing mechanism defines an outlet conduit through which air can be blown and an inlet conduit through which air from within the space can be drawn. The spraying mechanism includes a pump for delivering liquid from a reservoir to an atomizing nozzle for spraying. The atomizing nozzle is located within the outlet conduit so that atomized particles emitted by the atomizing nozzle are entrained in the airstream emitted by the air-blowing mechanism and thereby distributed evenly throughout the space. The control mechanism controls operation and is adapted to commence operation of the air-blowing prior to operation of the atomizing nozzle and to continue operation of the air-blowing after operation of the nozzle has ceased.

Abstract: A plasma generator capable of performing intermittent operation of repeating a sequence operation including start, sustaining, and stop of a cathode arc plasma for a long time. The plasma generator for forming a thin film comprises a cathode (4) for supplying constituent particles of an arc plasma and a trigger-and-anode (6) for starting and sustaining the arc plasma. The cathode surface (4a) of the cathode (4) is flat or finely irregular, and the anode surface (6c) of the trigger-and-anode (6) brought into contact with the cathode surface (4a) is flat. The anode surface (6c) is so arranged as to be brought into contact with the whole cathode surface (4a) when a plasma is started. The contact point between a fine projection end (4b) of the cathode surface (4a) and the anode surface (6c) is made a plasma emission point. When the projection is consumed by plasma emission, another projection end which can be brought into contact with the anode surface (6c) is used as another plasma emission point, thus enabling intermittent operation of persistently repeating the sequence operation. Consequently, a stable plasma can be produced for a long time.
