Title: Periodic field focusing ion mobility spectrometer

Abstract

This invention is generally in the field of improved ion mobility spectrometry. The improvement lies in the use of periodic focusing electric fields that minimize the spatial spread of the migrating ions by keeping them in a tight radius about the axis of travel. The resulting enhancement in sensitivity is accomplished without a concomitant loss in resolution as would normally be expected when non-linear fields are used.

Ion mobility spectrometers and methods for ion mobility spectrometry

Patent Dahl, David A [Idaho Falls, ID]; Scott, Jill R [Idaho Falls, ID]; Appelhans, Anthony D [Idaho Falls, ID]; ...

An ion mobility spectrometer may include an inner electrode and an outer electrode arranged so that at least a portion of the outer electrode surrounds at least a portion of the inner electrode and defines a drift space therebetween. The inner and outer electrodes are electrically insulated from one another so that a non-linear electric field is created in the drift space when an electric potential is placed on the inner and outer electrodes. An ion source operatively associated with the ion mobility spectrometer releases ions to the drift space defined between the inner and outer electrodes. A detector operativelymore » « less

Systems and methods for integrating ion mobility and ion trap mass spectrometers

Patent Ibrahim, Yehia M.; Garimella, Sandilya; Prost, Spencer A.

Described herein are examples of systems and methods for integrating IMS and MS systems. In certain examples, systems and methods for decoding double multiplexed data are described. The systems and methods can also perform multiple refining procedures in order to minimize the demultiplexing artifacts. The systems and methods can be used, for example, for the analysis of proteomic and petroleum samples, where the integration of IMS and high mass resolution are used for accurate assignment of molecular formulae.
