Abstract:
An ion mirror is disclosed comprising an ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ) at the ion entrance to the ion mirror, an energy focussing electrode section ( 66 ) for reflecting ions back along a longitudinal axis towards said ion entrance, and a spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ) arranged between the ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ) and the energy focussing electrode section ( 66 ) for spatially focussing the ions. One or more DC voltage supply is provided to apply a DC potential to the ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ) that is intermediate the DC potential applied to the spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ) and the DC potential applied to the energy focussing electrode section ( 66 ). The ion mirror further comprises: (i) at least one first transition electrode ( 68 ) arranged between said ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ) and said spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ), wherein said one or more DC voltage supply is configured to apply a DC potential to said at least one first transition electrode that is intermediate the DC potential applied to the ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ) and the DC potential applied to the spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ); and (ii) at least one second transition electrode ( 69 ) arranged between said energy focussing electrode section ( 66 ) and said spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ), wherein said one or more DC voltage supply is configured to apply a DC potential to said at least one second transition electrode ( 69 ) that is intermediate the DC potential applied to the spatial focussing electrode section ( 64 ) and the DC potential applied to the ion entrance electrode section ( 62 ).

Claim (Index 30):
The spectrometer of any one of  claims 27 - 29 , wherein the plurality of ion lenses are arranged adjacent to one another with their longitudinal axes in parallel and extending in a direction between first and second ion mirrors.
