Large and complex products such as aircrafts or wind energy plants are usually produced in small batches. This leads to particular requirements for logistics with regard to process efficiency, flexibility and reliability ...

Corona discharge ionization sources are often used in ion mobility spectrometers (IMS) when a non-radioactive ion source with high ion currents is required. Typically, the corona discharge is followed by a reaction region ...

The drift voltage is one of the key experimental parameters of any drift tube ion mobility spectrometer. In this work, we show that a universal relationship between optimum drift voltage and the resolving power reached at ...
