   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
ion trap [′ī‚än ‚trap]
(electronics)
An arrangement whereby ions in the electron beam of a cathode-ray tube are prevented from bombarding the screen and producing an ion spot, usually employing a magnet to bend the electron beam so that it passes through the tiny aperture of the electron gun, while the heavier ions are less affected by the magnetic field and are trapped inside the gun.
A metal electrode, usually of titanium, into which ions in an ion pump are absorbed.

When operated in the MSn mode, the ITQ 700 performs tandem MS functions by injecting ions into the ion trap and destabilizing matrix ions, isolating only the pesticide ions which are then given sufficient energy to further fragment.
However, demand for ion trap MS will also see nearly double-digit growth.
