An Introduction
What is Spectroscopy ??
Interaction of Radiation and Matter
Spectroscopic Analytical Methods are based on….
Measuring amount of radiation…….
1- Produced by molecular or atomic species
2- Absorbed by molecular or atomic species
Spectroscopic methods are classified according to region of the electromagnetic spectrum

2- Hollow-cathode lamp
HCL usually consists of a glass tube containing a cathode, an anode, and a buffer gas (usually a noble gas). A large voltage across the anode and cathode will cause the buffer gas to ionize, creating a plasma. The buffer gas ions will then be accelerated into the cathode, sputtering off atoms from the cathode. Both the buffer gas and the sputtered cathode atoms will in turn be excited by collisions with other atoms/particles in the plasma. As these excited atoms decay to lower states, they will emit photons, which can then be detected and a spectrum can be determined. Either the spectrum from the buffer gas or the sputtered cathode material itself, or both, may be of interest.
Cathode
Anode
The anode of the hollow cathode lamp is made of zirconium.During processing, we subject the anode to ion bombardmentthat vaporizes a small amount of zirconium and deposits it onthe lamp envelope near the anode. This film of zirconium is highly reactive and acts as a very efficient scavenger of traces of oxygen and other molecular gases that might otherwise reduce the lifetime of the lamp. It is called a "getter". Look for the dark smudge behind the anode. It is there to help prolong the useful life of the lamp.

Graphite Furnace Spectroscopy
Graphite Tubes
Hydride Unit Separating the analyte from the matrix can improve the sensitivity of the atomic absorption technique and avoids physical, matrix and spectral interferences.
Metalloid Oxyanions
Hydride generation (HG) is a very effective analytical technique developed to separate hydride forming metals, such as Se and As, from a range of matrices and varying acid concentrations. The heated quartz tube atomizer is particularly useful for the determination of arsenic and selenium because the absorption wavelengths for these elements are below 200 nm in an area subject to intense interference from flame radicals that can significantly affect detection limits. Mercury can be easily reduced in solution to generate elemental mercury, otherwise known as cold vapor (CV). This technique is also effective at separating mercury from a range of matrices. These analytical techniques can improve detection limits by a factor of approximately 3000 times that of flame detection limits and typically have less interference than graphite furnace techniques.
