Patent GB-2573978-A (GB)
Title: Spectrometry System
Inventor: MAX ALLSWORTH
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 2017-11-29
Abstract: An ioniser generates ions in a gas flowing through a field asymmetric ion mobility system (FAIMS). An ion filter applies a compensation field and a dispersion field to separate the ions. A detector detects an output ion current. A processor extracts a spectrum of peak intensity as a function of the compensation and dispersion fields, calculates a turning point for the spectrum, and determines operating parameters of the system. Humidity is determined by comparing the turning point with a database of known turning points each having an associated humidity value and obtained from a system having operating parameters aligned with the determined parameters. A first (second) spectrum of peak intensity may be extracted for negative (positive) ions, compared with database values for negative (positive) ions, and a first (second) humidity value determined; the determined humidity may be the first or second value, or be determined using peak width.
