Abstract
An IMS ionizer comprising a wire, a second conductor, and a dielectric, when the first conductor and second conductor are energized to an ionization voltage, discharge ionization occurs. The dielectric is a glass element formed in a tubular shape defining an inner wall. The wire is formed in coils in contact with said inner wall. The second conductor is positioned to define an outer wall of the tube. The tube has an inlet end for receiving the sample, and an outlet end through which the sample exits after ionization.
