Instrument: Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer
Instrument Short Name: ICP-OES or ICP-AES
Instrument Description:
Also referred to as an Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscope (ICP-AES). These instruments pass nebulised samples into an inductively-coupled gas plasma (8-10000 K) where they are atomised and excited. The de-excitation optical emissions at characteristic wavelengths are spectroscopically analysed. It is often used in the detection of trace metals.
