Latest Patents

One of Yang Wang's latest patents is titled "Method and device for the introduction of ions into quadrupole ion traps." This invention relates to methods and devices for the effective introduction of ions stored in an RF ion guide into a quadrupole ion trap. The invention features a switchable ion lens positioned between the RF ion guide and the quadrupole ion trap. This allows for the introduction of ions into the quadrupole ion trap only during the filling period, while otherwise reflecting the ions back into the RF ion guide. The filling period can be divided and limited to the capture intervals of the quadrupole ion trap during each RF period. Measurement of the filling rate can be achieved by keeping the ion lens open longer than the admission interval of the quadrupole ion trap and measuring the flow of ions passing through on the detector.

Another notable patent is the "Quadrupole ion trap with switchable multipole fractions." This invention provides an ion trap where higher multipole field fractions can be switched on and off and can also be electrically tuned. The electrodes of the ideally shaped ion trap are divided into rotationally symmetrical component electrodes positioned facing the interior of the ion trap on a hyperboloidal surface with rotational symmetry.
