19. Atomic absorption AAS

Principle: The sample to be tested is atomized through an atomizer, and the atoms to be measured absorb the light of the hollow cathode lamp of the element to be measured, so that the energy detected by the detector becomes lower, and the absorbance is obtained. Absorbance is proportional to the concentration of the element to be measured.

20. Inductively coupled high-frequency plasma ICP

Principle: The high temperature generated by argon plasma is used to completely decompose the sample to form atoms and ions in the excited state. Since the atoms and ions in the excited state are unstable, the outer electrons will transition from the excited state to a lower energy level, thus emitting characteristic spectrum line. After the light is split by a grating, a detector is used to detect the intensity of a specific wavelength. The intensity of the light is proportional to the concentration of the element to be measured.

21.X-ray diffraction XRD

Principle: X-rays are optical radiation generated by the transition of electrons in the inner layer of atoms under the bombardment of high-speed moving electrons. There are mainly two types of continuous X-rays and characteristic X-rays. Crystals can be used as X-ray gratings. The coherent scattering produced by these large numbers of atoms or ions/molecules will cause light interference, thereby affecting the intensity of the scattered X-rays to increase or decrease. Due to the superposition of scattered waves from a large number of atoms, they interfere with each other and produce a high-intensity beam called X-ray diffraction line.

To satisfy the diffraction conditions, Bragg’s formula can be applied: 2dsinθ=λ

Apply X-rays of known wavelength to measure the θ angle to calculate the interplanar spacing d, which is used for X-ray structural analysis; the other is to use a crystal with known d to measure the θ angle to calculate the characteristic X-ray Wavelength, and then the elements contained in the sample can be found from existing data.
