Field-Dependent Reduced Ion Mobilities of Positive and Negative Ions in Air and Nitrogen in High Kinetic Energy Ion Mobility Spectrometry (HiKE-IMS)

Abstract

In High Kinetic Energy Ion Mobility Spectrometry (HiKE-IMS), ions are formed in a reaction region and separated in a drift region, which is similar to classical drift tube ion mobility spectrometers (IMS) operated at ambient pressure. However, in contrast to the latter, the HiKE-IMS is operated at a decreased background pressure of 10–40 mbar and achieves high reduced electric field strengths of up to 120 Td in both the reaction and the drift region. Thus, the HiKE-IMS allows insights into the chemical kinetics of ion-bound water cluster systems at effective ion temperatures exceeding 1000 K, although it is operated at the low absolute temperature of 45 °C. In this work, a HiKE-IMS with a high resolving power of RP = 140 is used to study the dependence of reduced ion mobilities on the drift gas humidity and the effective ion temperature for the positive reactant ions H3O+(H2O)n, O2+(H2O)n, NO+(H2O)n, NO2+(H2O)n, and NH4+(H2O)n, as well as the negative reactant ions O2–(H2O)n, O3–(H2O)n, CO3–(H2O)n, HCO3–(H2O)n, and NO2–(H2O)n. By varying the reduced electric field strength in the drift region, cluster transitions are observed in the ion mobility spectra. This is demonstrated for the cluster systems H3O+(H2O)n and NO+(H2O)n.
