Preferred Label : electrothermal atomizer;
Detailed label : electrothermal atomizer in spectrochemical analysis;
IUPAC definition : A device which is heated to the temperature required for analyte atomization by the
passage of electrical current through its body. In open atomizers the sample vapour,
together with analyte atoms, leaving the atomizer surface may move freely into the
surrounding space. In confined atomizers the sample vapour is restricted by the atomizer
wall except for the openings where the optical beam enters and leaves the atomizer
and the sample introduction hole.;
