Abstract:
A time-of-flight mass spectrometer is disclosed comprising ion optics that map an array of ions at an ion source array ( 71 ) to a corresponding array of positions on a position sensitive ion detector ( 79 ). The ion optics include at least one gridless ion mirror ( 76 ) for reflecting ions, which may compensate for various aberrations and allows the spectrometer to have relatively high mass and spatial resolutions.

Claim (Index 1):
A time-of-flight mass spectrometer comprising:\n an ion source array for supplying or generating ions at an array of positions; a position sensitive ion detector; and ion optics arranged and configured to guide ions from the ion source array to the position sensitive detector so as to map ions from the array of positions on the ion source array to an array of positions on the position sensitive detector; wherein the ion optics includes at least one gridless ion mirror for reflecting ions.
