Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) device with charged material transportation chamber

A method of manufacturing an ion mobility spectrometer drift chamber, the method comprising:

• forming a fine line of resistive ink to form a patterned resistive trace on an interior surface of a tube of unitary construction formed of at least one of substantially non-conductive material or semi-conductive material, the patterned resistive trace having a resistance of from 20 MΩ to 200 MΩ, the tube having a longitudinal axis, wherein the patterned resistive trace comprises multiple turns about the longitudinal axis deposited adjacent to each other on the interior surface of the tube, wherein the multiple turns have a pitch of at least two turns per centimeter and are electrically connected to each other on the interior surface of the tube, the patterned resistive trace configured to connect to a source of electrical energy;
• and
• connecting the patterned resistive trace to a connector of the chamber, the connector configured to connect the patterned resistive trace to the source of electrical energy.
