摘要
We report the design, fabrication, and characterization of the first monolithically 3-D printed, hyperbolic, compact RF quadrupole mass filters. The devices are made via multi-material extrusion. We also developed compact electronics to drive the quadrupoles that are compatible with the size, weight, and power constraints of deployable platforms, such as CubeSats (<3 W, up to 400 Vpp sinusoidal amplitude, 1-3 MHz, >2000 voltage steps for 100:1 resolution). Characterization of prototypes in vacuum shows the devices can scan the 1-250 amu mass range and correctly identify Ar.
