1 December 1990Present and future roles of high-performance charge transfer device detectors in spectrochemical analysis
The inductively coupled plasma is widely used as a radiation source in analytical emission
spectrometry. Because of the richness of the spectra and the line broadening, the role of the
resolving power of the dispersive system is very important. Monochromators allow a flexibility in
line selection and can be optimized to obtain the best experimental resolution. Considering the
range of the physical line widths of analytes observed in the plasma, specifications can be given
for the instrumental broadening of the monochromator. Parameters influencing the instrumental
broadening will be described with an emphasis on the resultant spectral slit width. Consequences
on the optimization of the signal to background ratio will be discussed.
