INDUCTIVE PLASMA OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETER

Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) is an analytical technique used to detect various chemical elements. It is a type of emission spectroscopy that uses inductively coupled plasma to produce excited atoms and ions that emit electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths characteristic of a particular element. The plasma is a high-temperature source of ionised gas (usually argon) maintained at high frequencies (MHz) by inductively coupled electrical coils. The temperature of the plasma is in the range 6000 to 10000 K. The intensity of the emission of different wavelengths of light is proportional to the concentrations of the elements in the sample.
