A novel method for the unambiguous direct determination of ionization potentials is presented. This is done by combining a pulsed field technique with a steradiancy analyser for the detection of threshold electrons. For now a resolution of better than 0.15 meV is demonstrated by resolving the first three rotational states of NO + .
