Abstract

A field terminator includes a plurality of electrode plates positioned around a guide axis at a radial distance therefrom. The plates generate a quadrupole DC field such that a polarity on each plate is opposite to a polarity on the plates adjacent thereto. The plates may be positioned at an axial end of a quadrupole ion guide such as a mass filter. In addition to an RF field, the ion guide may generate a quadrupole DC field. The DC field of the plates may be opposite in polarity to that of the ion guide.
