Inductively-coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-005802",
  "term": "Inductively-coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An analytical technique that employs an inductively-coupled plasma to excite atoms and ions in a sample, causing them to emit characteristic electromagnetic radiation. The emitted light is then dispersed by a spectrometer and detected, allowing for qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis. This method offers high sensitivity and a wide dynamic range for many elements.",
