Abstract
Matrix methods based on phase-space dynamics are used to examine the feasibility of operating a quadrupole mass filter using one of the higher zones of stability. Ion transmission efficiencies are calculated for various modes of operation. By using lower rf, performance may approach that of the conventional mass filter under certain conditions, but instrument apertures are generally somewhat smaller.Keywords
