2. Theoretical Concepts⑴Integral Formula of AASFig 3-4 Typical Shape of A Atomic Absorption line
Integral Absorption FormulaBy atomic theory (3.1) By Line Shape Function ( the Nature distribute ) (3.2) The Peak Absorption Coefficient k0 is: (3.3)
⑵ Peak Absorption Theoryby Lambert-Beer’s Law: (3.4) (3.5) (3.6)
The Absorbance is: (3.7)
When: va>> ve, and v0a= v0e, then kv≈k0,
