CaptiveSpray Differential Ion Mobility Spectrometry Device with Enhanced Ion Transmission and Improved Resolving Power.
Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry(2023)
Abstract
A performance enhanced CaptiveSpray differential ion mobility device was designed and constructed by incorporating a circular channel and a gas flow homogenizing channel (GFHC) between the CaptiveSpray ion source and planar differential ion mobility spectrometry (DMS). The GFHC was used to reduce gas flow heterogeneity prior to the entrance of the DMS device. The optimal flared entrance greatly reduces gas flow velocity at the inlet region owing to its relatively large gas inlet interface, which assists in reducing disparities between the minimum and maximum gas velocity along the -axis. The circular electrode was machined with channels along the - and -axis for the passage of auxiliary gas and was applied with a potential to focus the incoming ions from the CaptiveSpray source into the DMS channel. Using reserpine as a reference standard, substantial signal enhancement was achieved with a concomitant reduction of the peak width in the ionogram.
