Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to the operation of trapping ion mobility spectrometers based on pushing ions by a gas flow against a counter-acting electric DC field barrier, preferably in combination with a mass analyzer as ion detector. The invention provides an additional RF ion trap upstream of the trapping ion mobility spectrometer, wherein the RF ion trap is operated as an accumulation unit in parallel with the trapping ion mobility spectrometer such that a first group of ions can be analyzed in the trapping ion mobility spectrometer while a second group of ions from an ion source are simultaneously collected in accumulation unit.
