In Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry, ions are detected by measuring image current induced in the detecting electrodes by trapped ions rotating in a magnetic field at their cyclotron frequencies. The ion trap used for this purpose is called the Penning trap. It can have various configurations of electrodes that are used to create a trapping electric field, to excite cyclotron motion, and to detect the induced signal. The evolution of this type of mass spectrometry is mainly driven by progress in the technology of superconducting magnets and in the constantly improved design of the ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) measuring cell. In this review, we focus on ICR cell designs. We consider that the driving forces of this evolution are the desire to increase resolution, mass accuracy and dynamic range, as well as to adapt new methods for creating and trapping ions.

使用电场模拟评估主要的历史 ICR 电池设计

在傅里叶变换离子回旋共振质谱法中，离子是通过测量在检测电极中感应的图像电流来检测的，该电流是由在磁场中以其回旋频率旋转的俘获离子引起的。用于此目的的离子阱称为 Penning 阱。它可以具有各种电极配置，用于产生俘获电场、激发回旋加速器运动以及检测感应信号。这类质谱仪的发展主要是由超导磁体技术的进步和离子回旋共振 (ICR) 测量单元的不断改进设计推动的。在这篇评论中，我们专注于 ICR 电池设计。我们认为这种演变的驱动力是提高分辨率、质量精度和动态范围的愿望，
