Electrothermal Vaporization ICP Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ETV-ICP-OES) uses high temperature plasma to liberate free atoms and ions from a vaporized sample in order to conduct elemental optical spectroscopic examina tion. When analyzing trace elements in a number of applications, including the examination of coal, metals and alloys, biomaterials, and the environment, the ETV-ICP-OES technique is highly helpful. Through its extensive network of laboratories, Infinita Lab, USA, provides this test to customers in the USA and all around the world.... Read More
The method uses Electrothermal Vaporization (ETV) to vaporize a sample into a carrier gas by controlled heating, followed by atom excitation in high temperature plasma and subsequent atomic emission spectra analysis using Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES). ETV is achieved in a small graphite tube furnace, into which the sample is placed in a graphite boat. Argon is usually the carrier gas, along with a modifier gas. The carrier and modifier gases flow through the heated tube and transport the vaporized sample as dry aerosol, into the next stage of high temperature plasma. The sample can also be introduced after making a slurry, using a nebulizer. The plasma generator is an inductively coupled (ICP) type, comprising a quartz tube surrounded by an induction coil. At high plasma temperatures, atoms are excited to higher energy levels and upon their return to ground state, their optical emissions (photons) exhibit characteristic wavelengths, depending on the element. The intensity of emissions depends on the concentration of the excited atoms. These characteristic emissions are separated and measured by spectroscopy (OES). When calibrated against standards, quantitative estimates of elemental compositions can be obtained.
The ETV-ICP-OES technique is very useful in the analysis of trace elements in a variety of applications such as coal analysis, metals and alloys, biomaterials and environmental analysis. Samples can be in the form of solids as well as slurries. Detectable concentrations are in the order of picograms.
