Comparison of theoretical and experimental spectroscopic constants in atomic absorption spectroscopy with electrothermal atomization

Atomic Absorption, Atomic Emission, and Flame Emission Spectrometry

“…However, atomization efficiency was often improved by use of a modifier, and this may stress the importance of adhering to stabilized-temperature platform furnace (STPF) conditions if comparisons are to be made between instruments. Torsi (118) pointed out that a limitation of theoretical characteristic mass is its dependence on the geometry of the atomizer. Instead, he proposed the use of the spectroscopic constant in Beer's law.…”
