Optical Emission Interference lines
Optical Emission Interference lines
(OP)
This may not be the right forum in which to place this question, but I couldn't find a better one, so here goes.
I have an OES, analysing Fe-base, Ni-base and Cu base alloys. I would like to know where to find information (preferably) on-line about interference lines for OES machines.
Many thanks

RE: Optical Emission Interference lines
"Principles of Instrumental Analysis", Skoog & Leary, 4th Ed., 1992, Section 10E-3 (pp 225-227).
(no doubt it will be in newer editions, just under different section numbers).
The other 'generic' advice I offer you is to use google to perform a web search, and contact the manufacturer of your instrument for more specifics regarding interference.
RE: Optical Emission Interference lines
What type of OES do you use? I am working on a new calibration and am having some trouble with the Ta lines. Do you have any info regarding this.
