About the ICP laboratory

The ICP laboratory is located within the Nuclear Chemistry section at the Chemistry Department and consists of two inductively coupled plasma (ICP) instruments. One is a radial view, monochromator, ICP optical emission spectrometer (OES) which can measure element concentrations from the high ppb level to the high ppm level and operates in the ~ 200-800 nm wavelength range. The other instrument is a ICP quadrupole, mass spectrometer (MS) which can measure element concentrations from the low ppb level to the low ppm level, as this is a mass spectrometer isotope ratios can also be measured.
