We discuss mini MS systems in terms of individual components and at a systems level.
Portable systems from academic and commercial laboratories are emphasized, but meso …

Since its inception, Direct Analysis in Real Time (DART) has seen utility in a wide range of
applications including chemical reaction monitoring, pharmaceutical screening, and forensic …

This paper describes, in detail, the development of a novel, low-cost, and flexible drift tube
(DT) along with an associated ion mobility spectrometer system. The DT is constructed from …

While conventional ion-soft landing uses the mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio to achieve
molecular selection for deposition, here we demonstrate the use of Structures for Lossless …

An ion mobility mass spectrometry apparatus for investigating the photoisomerization and
photodissociation of electrosprayed molecular ions in the gas phase is described. The …

We report a conceptual study and computational evaluation of novel planar electrode
structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM). Planar electrode SLIM components were …

Carbon implantation into titanium is known to enhance some of its surface properties like
wear behavior, mechanical hardness or the friction coefficient. Therefore the method is a …

A complex, long-range experimental program for the production of neutron-rich nuclei via
multi-nucleon transfer (MNT) reactions and spontaneous fission (SF) inside the Cryogenic …

Chemical standards are used to calibrate ion mobility spectrometers (IMS) for accurate and
precise identification of target compounds. Research over the past 30 years has identified …

Radio-frequency (RF) carpets with ultra-fine pitches are examined for ion transport in gases
at atmospheric pressures and above. We develop new analytic and computational methods …
