C. Schnurerpatschan et al., IMPROVEMENT IN DETECTION LIMITS IN GRAPHITE-FURNACE DIODE-LASER ATOMIC-ABSORPTION SPECTROMETRY BY WAVELENGTH MODULATION TECHNIQUE - PLENARYLECTURE, Journal of analytical atomic spectrometry, 8(8), 1993, pp. 1103-1107
A significant reduction in measurable absorbance is demonstrated by ap
plication of a wavelength modulation technique using diode lasers in l
aser atomic absorption spectrometry in graphite tube atomizers. While
rubidium and lanthanum are measured by absorption of fundamental diode
laser radiation at 780.03 and 670.95 nm from the ground and an excite
d state, respectively, aluminium is determined by deep blue light at 3
96.15 nm produced by the second harmonic generation of diode laser rad
iation in an LiIO3 crystal.
