An exact hard-spheres scattering model for the mobilities of polyatomic ions

AA Shvartsburg, MF Jarrold - Chemical physics letters, 1996 - Elsevier
We describe an exact hard-spheres scattering model for calculating the gas phase
mobilities of polyatomic ions. Ion mobility measurements have recently been used to deduce …

Structures of medium-sized silicon clusters

KM Ho, AA Shvartsburg, B Pan, ZY Lu, CZ Wang… - Nature, 1998 - nature.com
Silicon is the most important semiconducting material in the microelectronics industry. If current
miniaturization trends continue, minimum device features will soon approach the size of …

Fundamentals of traveling wave ion mobility spectrometry

AA Shvartsburg, RD Smith - Analytical chemistry, 2008 - ACS Publications
Traveling wave ion mobility spectrometry (TW IMS) is a new IMS method implemented in the
Synapt IMS/mass spectrometry system (Waters). Despite its wide adoption, the foundations …

Recommendations for reporting ion mobility Mass Spectrometry measurements

V Gabelica, AA Shvartsburg, C Afonso… - Mass spectrometry …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Here we present a guide to ion mobility mass spectrometry experiments, which covers both
linear and nonlinear methods: what is measured, how the measurements are done, and how …

[BOOK][B] Differential ion mobility spectrometry: nonlinear ion transport and fundamentals of FAIMS

AA Shvartsburg - 2008 - taylorfrancis.com
Over the last decade, scientific and engineering interests have been shifting from conventional
ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) to field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (…

Solid clusters above the bulk melting point

AA Shvartsburg, MF Jarrold - Physical Review Letters, 2000 - APS
The fact that the melting points of nanoparticles are always lower than those of the
corresponding bulk material is a paradigm supported by extensive experimental data for a large …

High-sensitivity ion mobility spectrometry/mass spectrometry using electrodynamic ion funnel interfaces

K Tang, AA Shvartsburg, HN Lee, DC Prior… - Analytical …, 2005 - ACS Publications
The utility of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) for separation of mixtures and structural
characterization of ions has been demonstrated extensively, including in biological and …

High-resolution field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry using new planar geometry analyzers

AA Shvartsburg, F Li, K Tang, RD Smith - Analytical chemistry, 2006 - ACS Publications
Field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) has emerged as a powerful
tool of broad utility for separation and characterization of gas-phase ions, especially in …

Single-parent evolution algorithm and the optimization of Si clusters

I Rata, AA Shvartsburg, M Horoi, T Frauenheim… - Physical Review Letters, 2000 - APS
We describe a novel method for the structural optimization of molecular systems. Similar to
genetic algorithms (GA), our approach involves an evolving population in which new …
