The characteristics of the detection of ions of the alkali metals and of cluster ions of the type (H 2 O) N MH + (where M is an amino acid) are markedly different from those for the detection of protonated saccharose ions. The latter are shown to produce a signal from a secondary electron multiplier detector at a lower ion energy than the threshold energy for the former ions. An explanation is proposed in terms of the charge localization.
