Abstract:
Certain embodiments described herein are directed to collision cells that comprise one or more integrated lenses. In some examples, a lens is coupled to two sections of a sectioned quadrature rod assembly, the lens comprising an aperture and a plurality of separate conductive elements disposed each one side of the lens, in which a respective disposed conductive element on one side of the lens is configured to electrically couple to a first, second, third, and fourth pole segments of the sectioned quadrature rod assembly.

Claim (Index 103):
A method of ionizing a sample comprising introducing the sample into an ion collision cell to ionize the sample, wherein the ion collision cell is fluidically coupled to an ion source at an entrance section of the ion collision cell and is fluidically coupled to an ion detector at an exit section of the ion collision cell, the ion collision cell comprising a sectioned quadrature rod assembly configured to provide a collision section between the entrance section and the exit section, the sectioned quadrature rod assembly comprising first, second, third, and fourth pole segments in each section of the quadrature rod assembly, and a lens between segments of at least one of the entry section and the exit section, the lens comprising an aperture and a plurality of separate conductive elements disposed on each side of the lens, in which a respective disposed conductive element on at least one side of the lens is configured to electrically couple to one of the first, second, third, and fourth pole segments of the sectioned quadrature rod assembly.
