1. A device for manipulating charged particles, the device comprisinga series of electrodes located so as to form a channel for transportation of the charged particles;

  • a power supply unit adapted to provide supply voltages to said electrodes so as to create a non-uniform high-frequency electric field within said channel, the pseudopotential of said field having one or more local maxima along the length of said channel, at least within a certain interval of time, wherein at least one of said maxima of the pseudopotential is transposed with time, at least within a certain interval of time and at least within a part of the length of the channel, wherein the supply voltages are high-frequency voltages synthesised using a digital method.
