ABSTRACT:
A mass spectrometer is disclosed comprising a guide wire ion guide1having an outer cylindrical electrode2and an inner guide wire electrode3. AC and DC potential differences are maintained between the outer electrode2and the inner electrode3so that ions are radially confined within the ion guide1in an annular potential well. The outer electrode2may be segmented and axial potential wells created along the length of the ion guide1may be translated along the length of the ion guide1by applying additional transient DC potentials to the segments forming the outer electrode2.
