Structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM) technology has demonstrated high resolving power ion mobility separation and flexibility to integrate complex ion manipulations into a single experimental platform. To enable IMS separations, trapping/accumulating ions inside SLIM (or in-SLIM) prior to injection of a packet for separations provides ease of operation and reduces the need for dedicated ion traps external to SLIM. To fully characterize the ion accumulation process, we have evaluated the effect of TW amplitudes, ion collection times, and storage times on the “in-SLIM” accumulation process. The study utilized a SLIM module comprising 5 distinct tracks, each with a specific ion accumulation configuration. The effect of the TW conditions on the accumulation process was investigated for a 3-peptide mixture: kemptide, angiotensin II, and neurotensin at a TW speed of 106 m/s. The effect of ion accumulation time/collection time and storage time was investigated, in addition to TW amplitude. Overall, the signal of the analyte ions increased when the ion collection time increased from 49 to 163 ms but decreased when the ion collection time increased further to 652 ms due to the space charge effects. Ion losses were observed at high TW amplitudes (e.g., 15 Vp–p and 20 Vp–p). In addition, under space charge conditions (e.g., collection times of 163 and 652 ms), the signal of the analyte ions decreased with an increase in storage times for all TW amplitudes applied to the trapping region. For ion accumulation, the data indicate that gentler TW conditions must be utilized to minimize ion losses and fragments to benefit from the “in-SLIM” accumulation process. Finally, wider SLIM tracks provided better performance than those with narrower tracks.
