Abstract:
Synchronized ion modification systems and techniques are described. An ion modifier can be used to modify a portion of ions that enter a drift chamber via a gate that controls entry of the ions to the drift chamber. A controller that is communicatively coupled to the ion modifier is configured to control the ion modifier to select a portion of the ion to be modified. In embodiments, the controller selects the portion based on a detector's previous response to other ions that are formed from a sample from which the ions were formed. The other ions, for example, correspond to ions that are associated with a peak in previous operation of a spectrometer.

Claim (Index 21):
A method comprising:\n separating ions in a drift chamber based on, respectively, said ion's ion mobility; fragmenting a portion of the ions, said ions in the portion having substantially similar ion mobilities; separating fragments that are ionized, respectively, based on said fragment's ion mobility and preventing at least some other ions that are not in the portion from passing toward the detector by neutralizing the at least some other ions.
