Atomic absorption / Graphite furnace

Description of the instrument

Atomic absorption and emission spectroscopies are techniques used to determine the concentration of a specific metallic element in a sample. These two techniques require that the samples, in liquid form (diluted in acid solution). In GFAAS and GFAES, the samples are placed in a small graphite tube, which can then be heated to vaporize and atomize the sample in solution. The atoms contained in the sample are reduced to their ground state (not excited) by absorbing or emitting light at wavelengths characteristic of each element.
