Definition | An optical emission spectrometer (OES) that determines elemental composition of a sample through the amount of light emitted from atoms or ions at specific wavelengths. The atomization source is an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) which is maintained by the interaction of Radio Frequency (RF) energy, generated by a solid-state RF generator, a horizontally mounted quartz torch and ionized argon gas. Standards and samples are acquired with the aid of an autosampler. The sample solution is injected as an aerosol into the plasma via a nebuliser and spray chamber using the integral peristaltic pump. Light from the plasma and the various atomic emissions therein pass through duel view (DV) windows into the thermally stabilised, argon-purged optical compartment housing an Echelle polychromator to separate the light into its component wavelengths. The polychromator comprises diffraction gratings, mirrors, lenses and visible and ultra-violet detector sets, each comprising arrays of segmented-array charge-coupled device (SCD) detectors and allows simultaneous quantification of atomic emissions in the plasma. |
