Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Interference

331
In atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), high-temperature atomizers excite a broad range of elements and molecules that generate complex emissions from sources such as oxides, hydroxides, and flame combustion products in the flame or plasma. Several strategies can be employed to minimize spectral interferences caused by overlapping emission lines or bands. These include increasing instrument resolution, choosing alternative emission lines, optimally placing the detector in low-background regions,...

Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Overview

2.8K
Atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of a sample by analyzing the light emitted from excited atoms. In AES, atoms in a sample are excited to higher energy levels by thermal energy from high-temperature sources, such as plasma, arcs, or sparks. When these excited atoms return to lower energy states, they emit light at specific wavelengths characteristic of each element. The resulting atomic emission spectrum, which consists of...

Emission Spectra

71.7K
When solids, liquids, or condensed gases are heated sufficiently, they radiate some of the excess energy as light. Photons produced in this manner have a range of energies, and thereby produce a continuous spectrum in which an unbroken series of wavelengths is present.

Impulse Response01:17

Impulse Response

426
The impulse response is the system's reaction to an input impulse. In an RC circuit, the voltage source is the input, and the capacitor's voltage is the output. The system's state and output response before and after input excitation are distinctly defined.
Kirchhoff's law forms an input signal equation, with the capacitor's current and voltage providing the output. Substituting the current and dividing by RC yields a differential equation. The output for an impulse input is...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

351
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy  (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used....

Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy01:29

Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy

551
Atomic fluorescence spectroscopy (AFS) is an analytical technique that involves the electronic transitions of atoms in a flame, furnace, or plasma being excited by electromagnetic (EM) radiation. When these atoms absorb energy, they become excited and subsequently release energy as they return to their original state. This emitted light, or "fluorescence," is observed at a right angle to the incident beam. Both absorption and emission processes transpire at distinct wavelengths, which...

Summary

Otoacoustic emissions evoked by clicks or tones share mechanisms, especially at low levels. Long-latency emissions predict cochlear processing, while early-latency components require further study.

Area of Science:

  • Auditory Neuroscience
  • Otoacoustic Emissions Research
  • Cochlear Mechanics

Background:

  • Coherent reflection theory posits a unified mechanism for otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) evoked by clicks (CE-OAEs) and stimulus-frequency tones (SFOAEs).
  • Investigating the similarities and differences between CE-OAEs and SFOAEs across varying stimulus intensities is crucial for validating this theory.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To test the hypothesis that CE-OAEs and SFOAEs originate from the same mechanism.
  • To analyze the time-frequency characteristics and underlying components of OAEs evoked by different stimuli.

Main Methods:

  • Gerbil models were used to record and compare CE-OAEs and SFOAEs across a range of stimulus levels.
  • Time-frequency analysis and filtering based on basilar-membrane (BM) group delays were employed.

Main Results:

  • OAE transfer functions showed near-equivalence between clicks and sweeps at low stimulus levels.
  • At higher levels, dissimilarities emerged, attributed to stimulus dynamics and contributions from multiple OAE source components with varying latencies.
  • Late-latency OAE components (around 1.6τBM) dominated at low levels and showed compressive growth, while early-latency components (around 0.7τBM) grew to dominate at higher levels.

Conclusions:

  • Long-latency OAEs, consistent with coherent reflection, can predict cochlear processing characteristics like frequency tuning sharpness, even at high stimulus levels.
  • The generation mechanisms and places of early-latency OAE components require further investigation.
  • The findings support a unified origin for OAEs but highlight stimulus-dependent variations and complex component interactions.
