Problems solved by technology

[0008] A common deficiency of the substance identification method in the general IMS detector data processing system is that the peak position information is only extracted from a preprocessed ion map for substance identification, but in fact there are some substances, whose Within a certain period of time (usually a few seconds) after being sent to the instrument for detection, the information such as the number of peaks and peak positions will change with time. For these substances, the general substance identification method cannot only identify the ion from a pretreated ion. If the correct identification result is obtained, it will cause false alarms, which will mislead the inspectors who use the instrument.

Abstract

The invention discloses a substance identification method of an ion mobility spectrum (IMS) detection instrument based on an ion diagram sequence. The method comprises the following steps: 1. executing preliminary substance identification for one time on a preprocessed ion diagram by utilizing a peak-detection algorithm, and storing substances matched in substance identification at this time; 2. continuously executing step 1 at a time interval of Delta t until times of preliminary substance identification reach preset times M, wherein, M is a natural number which is greater than 2; and 3. eliminating interfering substances from the substances matched in preliminary substance identification for M times. In the invention, for certain multi-peak substances, information such as peak quantity, peak position and the like changes with time, so a false alarm is given if only based on the identification result of the preprocessed ion diagram, which causes misguidance on an inspector using the detection instrument. By utilizing the substance identification method based on the ion diagram sequence, probability of the false alarm can be lowered so as to reduce misguidance on the inspector.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a trace substance detection technology based on ion mobility spectrometry, and more specifically, to a substance identification method based on an ion map sequence of an ion mobility spectrometer detector. Background technique [0002] Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) detection technology is an effective chemical substance analysis method, which has been widely used in airports, docks, stations and other places for trace detection of explosives, drugs, etc., and the detection accuracy can generally reach micrograms or even nanometers. Below the gram level. The basic composition of an IMS detector is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the IMS detector is mainly composed of a migration tube, peripheral control circuits and other equipment. The migration tube is the core part of the instrument, and it is the place where the substance molecules in the sample to be detected are ionized into ions and the ions drift. The data pr...
