Definition of Terminology
Quantitative analysis method using the emission
spectrometer by measuring the intensity of
emission of atomic spectral line obtained by
vaporized excitation by means of discharge of the
analytical object element contained in a sample.
Photoelectric photometric method
Spectrum intensity measurement method using
the photomultiplier
Same as “Counter Electrode”. (tungsten electrode)
Strictly, the sample is also an electrode, because
the discharge is generated in the gap between the
counter electrode and the sample. But, in this
instruction manual, it means counter electrode
unless specially noted.
Time set as non-measurement time from
discharge start until emission intensity is stabilized
Measurement time in case of measurement of
emission intensity by a specified-time integration
Gas to be carried around the electrode in order to
stabilize discharge and remove influence due to
sample history or absorption by oxygen in air
Sample prepared for measurement
Sample for creating a working curve of which
quantitative element content was precisely
determined by the chemical analysis method
Sample to be used for calibration of the working
curve for a specified time or at every
measurement of a specified number of samples
