IMS Pictogram- click here to see how

• an analyte is sampled

• the analtye is moved into IMS

• the analyte is ionized

• ions are held, then released by ion gate at the entrance to the drift tube

• ions move down drift tube at different velocities

• ions create a unique signature of current as they strike Faraday plate
