ABSTRACT:
A time of flight mass spectrometer is disclosed comprised of a deflection field for ion parcels including at least one pair of inner and outer electrodes. The inner and outer electrodes present ion guiding surfaces which in planes normal to the ion flight path are convex and concave, respectively, and more closely spaced at their edges than at any mediate location.
