[0002] The mass spectrometer aims at determining the chemical element isotope composition in the sample, the function of the ion source is to convert the element into positive ion form and accelerate and focus into an ion beam, facilitating subsequent charged ion magnetic field analysis. The function of the ion receiver is to collect the ions after electromagnetic analysis, the charged ion movement has current, the current is amplified through external equipment, the collected ion ratio can be measured, and the isotope ratio of different mass-to-charge ratios is measured. The working principle of the thermal ionization magnetic mass spectrometer is based on the spatial separation of the elements of the solid sample to be analyzed, the elements are ionized by different work functions and form an ion beam, and then the content of each component is determined. In order to achieve this goal, the sample is spotted on the sample support, and then ionized by current into the ion optical lens system of the mass spectrometer, collected into a narrow beam by the ion optical system of the ion source, and accelerated to a much higher energy than the initial thermal energy propagation.
