Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Principle01:19

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Principle

Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the most widely used plasma source in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), also known as Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The ICP source, or torch, consists of three concentric quartz tubes with argon gas flowing through them. A spark from a Tesla coil initiates the ionization of argon, generating a high-temperature plasma.
The ions and electrons produced interact with the fluctuating magnetic field created by a water-cooled...

Inductively Coupled Plasma–Mass Spectrometry (ICP–MS): Overview

In inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (ICP–MS), an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch is used as an atomizer and ionizer. Solid samples are dissolved and volatilized before being introduced into the high-temperature argon plasma, while solution samples are nebulized and passed through the high-temperature argon plasma. Plasma dissociates the analytes and ionizes their component atoms to form a mixture of positive ions and molecular species. The positive ions are then passed on to...
Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation01:22

Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

The instrumentation of atomic emission spectrometry (AES) involves various components, including atomization devices that convert samples into gas-phase atoms and ions. There are two main types of atomization devices: continuous and discrete atomizers.  Continuous atomizers, like plasmas and flames, introduce samples in a constant stream, while discrete atomizers inject individual samples using syringes or autosamplers. The most common discrete atomizer is the electrothermal atomizer.

Area of Science:

  • Plasma Physics and Fusion Energy

Background:

  • ITER requires large negative ion beams for plasma heating.
  • Current cesium delivery systems use multiple ovens, complicating operation and maintenance.
  • Simultaneous operation of multiple cesium ovens presents significant challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and experimentally verify an alternate cesium delivery method.
  • To reduce the operational complexity associated with multiple cesium ovens.
  • To investigate a single-oven, multinozzle distributor system for cesium delivery.

Main Methods:

  • A proof-of-principle experiment was conducted at the Institute for Plasma Research.
  • A multinozzle distributor based cesium oven was designed and tested.
  • Cesium flux and its dependence on temperature were measured.

Main Results:

  • The multinozzle distributor system demonstrated the feasibility of a single-oven approach.
  • Cesium flux control shifted from the reservoir temperature to the distributor temperature over time.
  • The distributor effectively acted as a secondary cesium reservoir.

Conclusions:

  • A single-oven, multinozzle cesium delivery system offers a viable alternative for ITER.
  • This new design can potentially simplify operational and maintenance procedures.
  • Further studies are needed to fully characterize the long-term performance and control of the distributor.
