Course content
Current topics in development of new instrumentation and applications of atomic and molecular spectrometry. Physical and chemical principles, instrumentation details of atomic spectrometry of valence (OES, AAS, AFS) and sub-valence electrons; of molecular absorption (in UV/Vis, IR, microwave and radio frequency spectral regions) and emission spectrometry. Inorganic mass spectrometry. Spectrometry based on scattering. Spectrometries that do not involve an exchange of energy between radiation and matter. Up-to-date applications in spectrometry (ultra trace analysis, speciation analysis, isotopic ration determination, surface analysis).
