What is Curved Field Reflectron (CFR)?
Curved Field Reflectron (CFR) is a unique PSD ion detection and measurement mechanism commercialized by Shimadzu. CFR allows simultaneous focusing of a wide mass range of metastable fragment ions formed after the initial MALDI ionization event. The diagram below shows the principle of MS/MS measurements in reflectron mode:

Advantages of PSD Ion Measurements by Curved Field Reflectron (CFR)
- Detects all PSD ions with a single measurement
Curved Field Reflectron allows anyone to perform quick and easy seamless PSD. - Seamless PSD spectrum makes measurement and analysis simple
TOF-MS with CFR mechanism
Offers seamless PSD spectra with a flat baseline for clear detection of all ions.
Products without CFR
Due to the narrow PSD ion mass range that can be simultaneously measured, spectra obtained without CFR needs to be stitched together.
