Abstract
A method of making an ion optics component includes providing an electrically isolating substrate and machining away material of the substrate from at least one major surface thereof to form features of a first electrode sub-assembly. The formed features include a first surface for supporting integration of a first electrode body and a second surface for supporting integration of a second electrode body. Subsequent plating and masking steps result in the formation of a first electrode body on the first surface and a second electrode body on the second surface. A bridge is integrally formed in the electrically isolating material, so as to electrically isolate the first electrode body from the second electrode body.
