Atomic Absorption Instrumentation • Radiation Sources • Hollow cathode lamps • Electrodless discharge lamps • Source modulation • Spectrophotometers • Single beam • Double beam
Radiation Sources • Atomic lines are narrow (0.002-0.005nm). • In chapter 13: Beer’s law is obeyed when line width of the source is narrower than absorption line width. • When ordinary spectrophotometers with continium source is used nonlinear calibration curves are obtained. • Line sources are used

Spectral Interferences • Line • Broadband • Scattering nm
Scattering Absorption
Background Correction • Two-line method • Continuum source method • Self-reversal method • Zeeman method Signal = ( Background + Signal ) – ( Backgound )
Two-line method • Monochromator at analytical wavelength: signal + background are measured • Monochromator is scanned to nearby line not absorbed by the analyte: backgound is measured • Signal = The difference of two measurements Monochromator bandwidth
Continuum Source Method • Monochromator at analytical wavelength: signal + background are measured • Slit is opened, source is replaced by deuterium lamp (continuum source): • tiny amount of light is absorbed by sample and the rest is scattered by backgound. • Signal = the difference Monochromator bandwidth

Self Absorption Line width also increase As the current increases As the current increses further mA Power Supply Number of unexcited atoms increase and absorb the center of the line.
Self-Reversal Method • Monochromator at analytical wavelength: signal + background are measured. • Current is pulsed high • Background is measured. • Signal = the difference Monochromator bandwidth
Chemical Interferences • Formation of Compounds of Low Volatility • Anion • Cation To eliminate the effect: • Higher temperature • Releasing agents • Protective agents
Chemical Interferences • Dissociation Equilibria • MO M + O • M(OH)2 M + 2 OH • Ionization Equilibria • M M+ + e-
