Abstract
The invention, in various embodiments, is directed to an analyzer using a solid-state flow generator to provide effluent flow along a flow path and deliver a sample to an ion mobility based filter and detector for analysis.
Claims18
A sample analyzer comprising:
- an inlet for receiving an effluent including a sample,
- a solid state flow generator including:
- a first ion source, and
- an ion attractor in fluid communication with the ion source for attracting ions from the ion source to generate a flow of the effluent through a flow path, and
- an ion mobility based analyzer along the flow path including:
- an ion mobility based filter for passing selected sample ions through a time-varying field, and
- a detector for detecting the ions exiting the ion mobility based filter.
