An Introduction to Waters T-Wave Devices Gordon Kearney, Waters Corporation The travelling wave (T-Wave) ion guide enables the precise manipulation of ions in a mass spectrometer in order to enhance sensitivity, selectivity, and analytical speed. T-Wave devices enable ions to be contained, moved forwards or backwards at predefined speeds, focused, trapped, sequentially released according to m/z, and separated based on their mobility.   Stepwave – Enhancing MS Sensitivity and Robustness Gary Harland, Waters Corporation StepWave™ is a unique ion transfer device designed to maximize transmission from the ion source to the mass analyzer. The device maintains instrument robustness and delivers significant improvements over alternative commercialized methods.   Triwave – More Complex Characterization Alistair Wallace, Waters Corporation This white paper describes experimental capabilities that provide organizations with a new, efficient discovery tool that helps them better compete in a wide range of industries and research disciplines.   ScanWave – Getting Better Full Scan Data Gary Harland, Waters Corporation The ScanWave™ collision cell is a useful tool for simultaneously collecting quantitative and qualitative information. The novel design of the ScanWave collision cell allows for typical functions, including collision induced dissociation (CID), in addition to enhancing duty cycle.   An Overview of the Principles of MSE Gordon Kearney, Waters Corporation This white paper provides an explanation of Waters MSE, a simple, generic method that enables you to obtain "all of the data all the time" in a single analysis. Learn about the key requirements of a comprehensive quantitative and qualitative analytical workflow and gain an understanding of the three stages of MSE.
