DESIREE electrospray ion source test bench and setup for collision induced dissociation experiments

Rev Sci Instrum. 2018 Jul;89(7):075102. doi: 10.1063/1.5030528.

Abstract

In this paper, we give a detailed description of an electrospray ion source test bench and a single-pass setup for ion fragmentation studies at the Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring ExpEriment infrastructure at Stockholm University. This arrangement allows for collision-induced dissociation experiments at the center-of-mass energies between 10 eV and 1 keV. Charged fragments are analyzed with respect to their kinetic energies (masses) by means of an electrostatic energy analyzer with a wide angular acceptance and adjustable energy resolution.
