| Abstract | With support from the Chemical Measurement and Imaging Program in the Division of Chemistry, Alexandre Shvartsburg at Wichita State University is developing a novel toolbox for the separation and characterization of macromolecules based on the gas-phase mobilities of aligned ions. For a century since the emergence of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) around 1900, all methods dealt with freely rotating ions. However, most macroions are polar and can align in electric field as a compass aligns with |
