Dispersive Spectrophotometry Chemical Analysis Technique
Dispersive spectrometry (DS) methods make up a large number of ultraviolet, visible light and infrared spectroscopy systems. DS refers to the fact that the light or electromagnetic radiation passed through the sample (analyte) must pass through a monochromator either before or after the analyte, to describe the analyte’s absorption/transmission characteristic spectrum. A simplest monochromator is…

Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry
When a sample is introduced into a flame, only a small fraction of the atoms are in an excited or high energy state [as per the Boltzmann equation] and most atoms of the element remain in the unexcited or ground state and are capable of absorbing energy. If light energy is supplied as a continuous…
