atomic absorption
spectroscopy |
A technique in which the absorption of light by free gaseous atoms in a flame or furnace is used to measure the concentration of atoms
|
|
atomic emission Spectroscopy
|
A technique in which the emission of light by thermally excited atoms in a flame or furnace is use to measure the concentration of atoms.
|
|
Fluorescence
|
The process in which a molecule emits a photon 10-8 to 10-4 seconds after absorbing a photon. it results from a transition between states of the same spin multiplicity.
|
|
Diode-array Spectrophotometer
|
A silicon
|
|
Pressure broadening of lines
|
An effect that increases the width of an atomic spectral line; caused by collisions among atoms that result in slight variations in their energy states
|
|
Doppler effect
|
A molecule moving towards a source of radiation experiences a higher frequency than one moving away from the source
|
|
plasma
|
A gas that is hot enough to contain free ions and electrons, as well as neutral molecules
|
|
Sputtering
|
the process whereby an atomic vapor is produced by collisions with excited ions on a surface such as the cathode in a hollow-cathode lamp.
|
|
Radiation buffer
|
Potential interferents that are intentionally added in large amounts to samples and standards to swamp out their effects on atomic emission measurements
