ABSTRACT:
Tailored excitation of ions in a mass spectrometer is obtained by using an excitation signal which comprises at least one signal having the form of a sinc function modulated sine wave. The sinc modulated sine wave has a magnitude function in the frequency domain in the form of a rectangular function centered at the frequency of the sine wave and having a width determined by the width of the sinc function. Plural sinc modulated sine wave signals can be applied to the ion trap of the spectrometer, with the various signals having different sine wave frequencies, to provide a tailored excitation spectrum without the need for extended computation.
