作品真棒，我没怎么看懂啊哈哈，支持一下

那里没看懂呢？

没接触过这方面的，才疏学浅哈哈，不怎么懂啊。

关于Finnigan，楼主少说了一个很重要的公司MAT，我做一点补充：
1、1967年Finnigan在美国加利福尼亚成立，主要产品应该是四极杆质谱。
2、1980年推出世界上第一台三重四极杆质谱TSQ。
3、1981年收购著名磁质谱和同位素质谱制造商，德国MAT公司。公司改名叫Finnigan MAT
4、1990年Finnigan MAT公司被Thermo收购。
5、1995年Thermo推出专利的离子阱质谱，推出离子阱质谱后，放弃了原来的单四极杆质谱。
6、1996年Thermo收购VG分裂的英国Fisons公司，应该是单四级杆的ICP-MS,GC-MS和LC-MS。Thermo现在的单四极杆气质ISQ和单四极杆液质MSQ，由Fisons产品技术发展而来。

菲尼根是意大利的著名品牌，后被热电收购。

菲尼根公司的名称来源于，菲尼根公司的创始人Robert E. Finnigan。热电收购意大利公司是卡拉尔巴，意大利气相色谱公司。



Robert E. Finnigan was born in Buffalo, New York, and studied at the U.S. Naval Academy, graduating with a B.S. in electrical engineering. He then served with the U.S. Air Force. Subsequently he earned an M.S. and a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois and spent three years as a senior scientist at the University of California’s Lawrence Livermore Radiation Laboratory, where he designed and built nuclear reactor instruments and control systems. In 1962 he joined Stanford Research Institute, where he first encountered quadrupole mass spectrometers, at that time in the “breadboard” state of development. Finnigan immediately saw their potential and tried, without success, to interest commercial companies. In 1963 he left Stanford to cofound Electronic Associates’ Scientific Instruments Division. Finnigan led the team that produced the first commercial quadrupole mass spectrometer in 1964.

In 1966 Syntex Corporation attempted to buy Electronic Associates’ California subsidiary, of which Robert Finnigan was director. The acquisition failed, but it prompted Finnigan to suggest to Mike Story that they form their own company to exploit the new quadrupole gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technology. Finnigan Instrument Corporation was formed, with Robert Finnigan as president, Bill Fies in charge of electronic design, Richard Hein as residual gas analyzer project leader, and Mike Story heading mass spectrometer design. Soon afterward, T. Z. Chu, general manager of Varian Associates’ Gas Chromatography Division, joined the group.

Finnigan rightly believed that the chromatographic applications of the combined GC-MS system would provided a sizable market for the new enterprise’s instruments. The company was able to sell a number of instruments to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for analysis of water pollutants. Finnigan Instrument Corporation also developed systems for detecting the illegal use of drugs by athletes and for pharmacokinetic studies of pharmaceutical products. The corporation went public in the early 1970s but was unable to weather the harsh commercial climate of the following decade, when the market for environmental testing products slowed. In 1990 stockholders accepted an offer by Thermo Instrument Systems, where Finnigan still serves as a consultant.

Finingan helped initiate the environmental and occupational health activity of the American Electronics Association, and he served as trustee for the Forensic Sciences Foundation. He is also a member of the National Research Council for the Assessment of the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He was the chairman of the U.S. National Working Group on Pollution for L’Organisation Internationale de Métrologe Légale.

渊源很深啊。

漏了一家公司——Bear Instrument，该公司的三重四极质谱很强，1999年曾Pittcon银奖，2001年，瓦里安收购Bear，而后瓦里安TQ GC-MS被布鲁克收购了。

这样公司很多了，可以参考etp的网站上面，曾经有规模销售的产品很公司很多的。。。。。后来都倒了，他们定制过的电子倍增器，太多了。

各家之间既有竞争又有合作

bear 公司实际上是当年菲尼根的几个人，从菲尼根出来后成立的质谱公司，主要的成就是180度弯曲三重四级杆设计。后来拿了奖后被当时的瓦利安公司收购

你也很了解历史哦，还知道其他质谱公司的历史吗？

知道的都来说说！正好了解下
