Aerosol vapour is transported to the plasma. Vapour desolvates and mixes with the plasma. Atomization occurs within the plasma. Atoms get excited to atomic and ionic states. Rich spectra produced because of presence of both atomic and ionic lines. Because of their different excitation energies, different emission lines will have maximum intensities at different vertical positions in the plasma. The droplets coming from the nebuliser can vary greatly in size, from less than 1 µm to more than 10 µm. Since droplets going into the IC plasma should be kept below 5 µm in size, it is necessary to remove the large droplets. This is done in a ______. The liquid spray from the nebuliser enters the spray chamber. By sheer size, the larger droplets fall to the bottom of the chamber and exit through the drain. The finer droplets in the vapour are transported to the plasma.
