Schematic illustrating possible electric field profiles and the corresponding voltage profile. (A) Linear electric field gradient to be used in most cases. (B) Stair-step profile to be used when stacking and resolving sections are desired along the length of the separation channel. (C) Reversed-polarity profile to be used when both negatively and positively charged species need to be separated and concentrated.
