Introduction Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) is a technique for measuring quantities of chemical elements present in environmental samples by measuring the absorbed radiation by the chemical element of interest. This is done by reading the spectra produced when the sample is excited by radiation. The atoms absorb ultraviolet or visible light and make transitions to higher energy levels. Atomic Absorption methods measure the amount of energy in the form of photons of light that are absorbed by the sample. A detector measures the wavelengths of light transmitted by the sample, and compares them to the wavelengths which originally passed through the sample. A signal processor then integrates the changes in wavelength absorbed, which appear in the readout as peaks of energy Absorption at discrete wavelengths.
Because of the scientific advances of Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission www.intechopen.com. Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy 4 Spectroscopy (ICP-OES), Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), have left Atomic Absorption (AA) behind. This technique, however, is excellent and has a larger
