Abstract

An ion carousel includes a first surface and a second surface adjacent to the first surface. The first and the second surfaces define an ion confinement volume. The second surface including a first inner array of electrodes arranged along a first path and configured to receive, at a first location on the first path, a first ion packet. The first inner array of electrodes are configured to generate a plurality of potential wells that include a first potential well and a second potential well. The first ion packet includes a first sub-packet of ions having a first mobility and a second sub-packet of ions having a second mobility, and the second ion packet includes a third sub-packet of ions having the first mobility and a fourth sub-packet of ions having the second mobility.
