Abstract
The design and modelling of a stable and easy to build coaxial 2.45 GH z microwave plasma torch is presented. Its held modelling and operatio nal principles based on transmission line theory are discussed. An exp erimental range of stable operation for usage in atomic spectrometry e xtends from 50 to 200 W microwave power and from an argon working gas flow of 50 to 1000 ml/min.
