Manipulation and Characterization of Electrosprayed Ions Under Ambient Conditions : Methods and Instrumentation

This thesis addresses the evolving field of measurement science, specifically that of mass spectrometry (MS) and ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) based techniques. It focuses on the design, construction and implementation of low-cost, easy-to-manufacture measurement tools that are used in modern sett...
