ICP-OES
Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission
spectroscopy (ICP-AES),
also referred to as inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry
(ICP-OES), is an analytical technique used for the detection of trace metals.
It is a type of emission spectroscopy that uses the inductively
coupled plasma to produce excited atoms and ions that emit electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths characteristic of a particular element. The intensity of this emission is
indicative of the concentration of the element within the sample.
