Abstract:
The invention provides a mass spectrometer that comprises a collision cell having an axial electric field that enhances transmission of light ions, especially elemental ions, through the collision cell, relative to heavier ions. The invention also provides methods of mass spectrometry that employ an axial electric field that is provided in a collision cell.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 15 , wherein applying the axial electric field gradient, further comprises at least one of: (I) applying a range of stepwise voltages in the axial direction to at least one electrode of the reaction cell that is elongated in the axial direction, (ii) providing a resistive coating to at least one electrode of the reaction cell that is elongated in the axial direction and connecting a DC voltage supply to an end of the at least one electrode, (iii) providing at least one electrode elongated in the axial direction that is slanted along the axial direction;\n wherein the at least one electrode is at least one elongated rod of the multipole and/or is at least one auxiliary electrode.
