Abstract

In ion mobility spectrometers, space-charge field has a significant effect on the diffusion and drift of ions, if the initial ion density is higher than 106 cm−3. Owing to this effect, the ion distribution in time and space cannot be described by a Gaussian curve any longer. These non-Gaussian ion distributions change the shape of the spectra not only quantitatively, but also qualitatively, which can lead to a misinterpretation of the spectra.
