The light source in AAS is the light source of the cathode lamp
coming from the element being measured and then passed into a flame
containing the atomized sample, then the radiation is passed to the detector
through the monochromator. Chopper is used to distinguish radiation from a
flame. The detector will reject the direction of the current (DC) of the flame
emission and mnegukur only alternating current from the source of radiation
or sample. The atoms of an element in the basic state will be subjected to
radiation then the atom will absorb energy and cause the electrons in the outer
shell to rise to a higher energy level or excited. The atoms of the sample will
absorb some of the light emitted by the light source. The absorption of light
energy occurs at a certain wavelength corresponding to the energy required by
the atom (Basset, 1994).
1. Lambert's Law:
When a monochromatic light source passes through a transparent
medium, then the intensity of the transmitted light decreases with the
increasing thickness of the absorbing medium.
2. Beer's Law:
The intensity of the transmitted light decreases exponentially with
the increasing concentration of the species that absorbs it.
I = Io . a.b.c
Or
Log I/Io = a.b.c
A = a.b.c
with,
A = absorbance, without dimension
a = absorption coefficient,
b = the length of the light trace in the medium containing the absorbing atom,
c = concentration,
Io = the intensity of the first light
I = the intensity of the transmitted beam
Interference in AAS
1. Spectral Interference,
a) Transport disturbance
b) Ionic disturbances
c) Emissions Disorder
the detector will produce the current drawing as in Figure 23a, which
the entry into the readout system is simply an alternating current (It),
entering into the flame will be made light dark (retained propeller).
Thus the light transmission (It) becomes dark light. When received by
comes from the emission light generated direct current curve. That is
