Abstract
A mass spectrometer comprising: an ion energy filterarranged and configured to filter ions according to their kinetic energy and so as to only transmit ions having a component of kinetic energy in a first dimension (z-dimension) that is within a selected range; and a multi-reflecting time of flight mass analyser or mass separatorhaving an ion accelerator, and two gridless ion mirrorsthat are elongated in the first dimension (z-dimension) and configured to reflect ions multiple times in a second orthogonal dimension (x-dimension), wherein the ion acceleratoris arranged to receive ions from the energy filterand accelerate the ions into one of the ion mirrors
