Construction and performance of a time-multiplex multiple-slit flame atomic fluorescence spectrometer for multi-element analysis

The design and performance characteristics of a new multi-element flame atomic fluorescence spectrometer are presented. Radiation from four hollow-cathode tubes is directed onto an unsheathed air—hydrogen flame. The resulting atomic fluorescence is viewed by a special monochromator with a separate exit slit for each element. The light exiting from all slits is directed to a single photomultiplier tube. The fluorescence signals from different elements are distinguished by a time multiplex approach. Single-element detection limits for ten elements and multi-element detection limits for four elements are presented. The degradation of detection limits by flame background emission noise and effect of flame composition on performance are discussed. Better than 1% precision is obtained for moderate analyte concentrations.     

Effects of translational and rotational diffusion on the association in kinetic model of nucleation

Kinetics of an association and dissociation of single elements with the effects of translational and rotational diffusion and angular limitations is discussed. Separated clusters embedded in a solution of orientable single elements are considered.Steady-state positional and angular distribution of single elements is calculated from the equation of translational-rotational diffusion and the boundary conditions proposed for orientation-limited association. Although spherical orientable elements are assumed, the model can be used for non-spherical particles with aspect ratios close to unity.Diffusion-limited rate constants of association and dissociation are proposed which depend on translational and rotational diffusion constants of single elements, the tolerance angle of the association, and the cluster size.Effective concentration of single elements and effective rate constants are expressed by the equilibrium and diffusion-limited rate constants. Effects of finite diffusion rates and finite tolerance angle are discussed.The equations of the kinetic model of nucleation are modified due to the diffusion-limited rate of the association.     

Bestimmung von Elementspuren im ng- und pg-Bereich durch optische Emissionsspektrometrie mit He-MIP-Anregung nach elektrolytischer Abtrennung im Graphitrohr und nach-folgender elektrothermischer Atomisierung

This article deals with the determination of traces of elements in the ng and pg range by emission spectroscopy with a He-MIP excitation after electrolytic preconcentration in a graphit tube followed by electrothermal atomization. A multi-stage combined procedure is described for the sensitive and reliable determination of trace elements in high-purity metals. Electrolytically depositable elements such as noble metals, copper, as well as bismuth, cadmium, iron, cobalt, zinc, and others are preconcentrated from acidic solutions with concentrations ? 0.05 ng ml^?1 after the decomposition of the sample if the matrix elements are not deposited. The electrolyte is cycled through a small cylindrical cathode of pure graphite on the inner wall of which the elements are deposited. The graphite tube is coupled directly to the quartz capillary of a microwave induced helium plasma (MIP). After electrothermal atomisation the trace elements are determined by emission spectrometry. Different types of MIP excitation sources are investigated. The MIP with the TM₀₁₀ microwave resonator shows optimal properties. For the determination of the trace elements in niobium and beryllium detection limits near 1 ng g^?1 and relative standard deviations between 6.5 and 15% are obtained.     

Elemental composition of dust in an iron foundry as determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis

In the workplace of an iron foundry total and respirable suspended particulate matter was daily collected with a network of stationary filtration systems, with Andersen cascade impactors and with personal samplers. The performances of the different sampling systems are evaluated. All samples were analysed by instrumental neutron activation analysis. More than 30 elements were determined. The composition of the particulate samples is compared to that of the major emission sources. For visualising and interpretation of the data computer programs for contour plotting, classification and clustering of the elements and the samples are applied. On the basis of their distribution and particle size the elements can be divided in a number of groups, for which easily determined elements are proposed as indicator elements. The results allow an estimate of the impact of the major emission sources on the air quality in the entire workroom. Suggestions for representative sampling techniques and locations are made.

Determination of trace elements in steel by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.

A rapid quantitative analysis of the trace elements in steel by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry is described. The conditions for laser ablation and normalization methods to improve the analytical precision are given. The optimum conditions for laser ablation were achieved when the ion yield was a maximum at the focus position in the fixed Q pulse mode, and above the focus position in the Q-switched pulse mode. It was found that the fixed Q pulse mode was most suitable for the determination of trace metal elements in steel, and that the Q-switched pulse mode was most suitable for both non-metallic elements and elements with a high boiling-point. In order to improve the analytical precision for those elements with a strong background intensity, normalization methods with both the matrix ion, 57Fe+, and 38Ar+ are proposed.     

Quantum-Chemical Calculation of Matrix Elements in a Basis of Functions with Polynomial Tails

A numerical integration method is suggested for calculating Hamiltonian matrix elements in a basis of functions with polynomial tails with allowance for discontinuities of higher-order derivatives of the basis function within the domain of integration. The method is tested by calculating matrix elements for a copper crystal. The results for the overlap matrix elements are presented demonstrating efficiency of the method.

A preliminary study of background concentrations of elements in plants of the Xizang Plateau

A total of 29 major and trace elements have been determined in 43 plant samples collected from the Xizang (Tibet) Plateau using INAA at a SLOWPOKE mini-reactor in order to study elemental background concentration values in Xizang plants. In this paper are reported elemental concentrations of different parts of the plants compared to average values of plants worldwide. The preliminary results suggest that nutritional, plant elements in this region are quite low indicative of a state of malnutrition, while the contents of Al, Ti, Cr and Ba are comparatively high. These findings indicate that the concentrations of most elements in the plants are mainly affected by local soil geochemical characteristics. Some variation in elemental distribution within the plants was also evident: in general, higher concentrations were found in stems compared to roots, and, differences for nutritional elements among the plant species were much greater than found for other elements.     

使用化学参考物质计算和阐明元素的标准化学放射本能

Exergy is the amount of work obtainable when some matter is brought to a state of thermodynamic equilibrium with the common components of the natural surroundings by means of reversible processes, involving interaction only with the above mentioned components of nature. This paper presents standard chemical exergy values for 85 elements. Reference species in the atmosphere (air), dissolved in the hydrosphere (oceans), and contained in the lithosphere (minerals) are used for these calculations. Standard chemical exergy values of elements were calculated from tabulated values obtained for standard conditions (an ambient temperature of 298.15 K and an atmospheric pressure of 0.1 MPa). Very low concentrations of elements in the atmosphere and oceans and the abundance of elements in the Earth's crust are no longer used in determining reference states for chemical elements. Liquid and gas mixtures generally are not useful as reference states. As a result of the work in this paper, a table of the chemical exergy values of many elements in the periodic table under standard conditions was tabulated.     

Analytical use of proton-induced X-ray emission

Proton-induced X-ray emission, PIXE, is capable of simultaneous quantitative determination of 10–15 elements. An introduction to the physical properties of the method is given and detection limits are shown for a routine analysis of a thin aerosol sample. Examples of applications to both thick and thin samples are presented. Human tooth dentine is analysed for lead, with simple sample preparation, indicating lead values of a few ppm for Swedish children. Quantitative analyses of several other elements are obtained simultaneously. Cascade impactors are used for sampling aerosols in work environment during welding operations giving information of size distribution and concentrations of the elements present. The aerosol is dominated by particle sizes between 0.5 and 2 μm as measured by the impactor, but the size distributions are different for different elements and welding techniques and depend on the distance from the welding source. The relative abundance of the elements found in the aerosol indicates the presence of fractionation mechanisms.     

Integrated Molecular Logic Using a Multistate Electrochromic Platform

Herein, we present an approach that integrates molecular logic functions using surface-confined metallo-organic assemblies. These assemblies are electrochromic and mimic the behaviour of logic elements. The logic elements are addressed individually by electrochemical methods, and their outputs are simultaneously read-out optically by UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy. The versatility of our setup is demonstrated by the integration of two multi-component assemblies; each acting as ternary logic elements. We used also a laminated cell configuration to demonstrate color-to-color and color-to-transparent transitions. This concept offers a route for the future development of devices with multiple logic states.     

Uncertainty propagation through correction methodology for the determination of rare earth elements by quadrupole based inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

Determination of rare earth elements by quadrupole based inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-QMS) shows several spectroscopic overlaps from M⁺, MO⁺ and MOH⁺ ions. Especially, the spectroscopic interferences are observed from the atomic and molecular species of lighter rare earth elements including Ba during the determination of Eu, Gd and Tb. Mathematical correction methods, knowing the at.% abundances of different interfering isotopes, and the extent of formation of molecular species determined experimentally, have been used to account for various spectroscopic interferences. However, the uncertainty propagated through the mathematical correction limits its applicability. The uncertainty propagation increases with the increase in contribution from interfering species. However, for the same extent of total contribution, the overall error decreases when the interfering species are more than one. In this work, chondrite as well as a few geological reference materials containing different proportions of various rare earth elements have been used to study the contributions of different interfering species and the corresponding uncertainty in determining the concentrations of rare earth elements. A number of high abundant isotopes are proposed for determining the concentrations of various rare earth elements. The proposed isotopes are tested experimentally for determining the concentrations of different rare earth elements in two USGS reference materials AGV-1 and G-2. The interferences over those isotopes are corrected mathematically and the uncertainties propagated due to correction methodology are determined for those isotopes. The uncertainties in the determined concentrations of rare earth elements due to interference correction using the proposed isotopes are found to be comparable with those obtained by the commonly used isotopes for various rare earth elements.

Chemical analysis of uranium and titanium niobotantalate metamict minerals by ion-exchange chromatography and spectrophotometric procedures

An ion-exchange separation followed by spectrophotometric determinations is applied to some metamict minerals. These minerals, containing very high amounts of elements which present some problems to the analyst, such as uranium, titanium, niobium and rare-earth elements, are fused with potassium bisulphate, and the cooled melts dissolved in sulphuric acid. The solutions are passed through a series of three ion-exchange columns to separate those mineral-forming elements for which the colorimetric procedures suffer interference from the elements listed above. The procedure has been tested with a synthetic solution and with solutions of the minerals.
