Abstract

See full text

A fluorescence spectrometer for multielement analysis including a source for atomizing a dispersed sample along an axis and a plurality of energizers and detectors preferably arranged in pairs about the source, with each of the pairs designed for analyzing one element. Preferably, the source is an inductively coupled plasma. Means is provided for each of the pairs to view a different segment of the source along its axis, depending on the element to be analyzed. Preferably, such means includes: a source movable along its axis; fiber optics interposed between the energizers and the source and between the source and the detectors; and a movable optical element interposed between the energizers and the source and between the source and the detectors. The spectrometer further features a polychromator for use in lieu of matched optical filters in the detectors and demountable hollow cathode lamps as energizers.
