What Does EIG Stand For?

EIG stands for Electrostatic Ion Guide

The Electrostatic Ion Guide (EIG) is a specialized instrument designed to transport and manipulate charged particles, particularly ions, using electrostatic fields. It enhances the precision of ion beam experiments and applications in fields such as mass spectrometry and particle physics. By leveraging electrostatic potentials, the EIG ensures efficient focusing and steering of ions, minimizing losses and improving the quality of the ion beam for various scientific investigations.
