OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY ICAP PRO X DUO ICP-OES

iCAP PRO X Duo

Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) is an analytical technique used to determine how much of certain elements are in a sample. The ICP-OES principle uses the fact that atoms and ions can absorb energy to move electrons from the ground state to an excited state. In ICP-OES, the source of that energy is heat from an argon plasma that operates at 10,000 kelvin. 

The ICP-OES principle relies on those excited atoms releasing light at specific wavelengths as they transition to a lower energy level.

As an electron returns from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, usually the ground state, it emits light of a very specific wavelength. The type of atom or ion (i.e, which element it is), and the energy levels the electron is moving between, determines the wavelength of the emitted light.

The amount of light released at each wavelength is proportional to the number of atoms or ions making the transition.

iCAP PRO X Duo ICP-OES has a  direct system control via included ICP-OES software. The iCAP PRO X ICP-OES delivers robust, uncomplicated trace elemental analysis with fast start-up, easy-to-use software and advanced accessory control, providing multi- element detection technology.
