Abstract
A new compact, aluminum electrothermal vaporization cell was constructed for inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry analysis. This cell is compact enough to fit within the space occupied by the spray chamber and fits directly to the quartz torch without extraneous tubing through the use of a simple Compression fitting. Sample volumes as low as 10 μL were analyzed with an automated control program for efficient vaporization. Twelve elements were analyzed utilizing a time resolved acquisition method so that real-time data could be generated over a period of 10 s with an average improvement factor of 14 for elements over a wavelength range of 193-445 nm.
