摘要:
An ultrasonic nebulizer includes a piezoelectric element that vibrates responsive to a drive signal having an alternating voltage. A nebulizing layer that may be a passive resonator is bonded to a first surface of the piezoelectric element and has an outer surface that transforms a liquid into a mist responsive to vibration of the piezoelectric element. A heat sink pad is in thermal contact with a heat sink and the passive resonator to dissipate heat from the piezoelectric element. The surface of the passive resonator may be roughened to guide flow of liquid.

A method comprises: aligning a plasma torch within an iris cavity of an iris along a first axis between first and second iris slots having heights less than 70% of the diameter of the torch; and generating an electromagnetic field having field lines along a second axis. The field comprises a component that is substantially transverse to the first direction. An apparatus is also described.

An optical absorption spectrometry system includes first and second light sources, a dichroic beam combiner and a wavelength selective module. The first light source emits first light having first wavelengths within a first wavelength range, and the second light source emits second light having second wavelengths within a second wavelength range different from the first wavelength range. The dichroic beam combiner includes a predetermined first reflectance/transmission transition region, the dichroic beam combiner being configured to transmit a first portion of the first light and to reflect a second portion of the second light to provide combined light. The wavelength selective module is configured to disperse the combined light received at an entrance aperture, to select a sample wavelength range of the dispersed light as sample light, and to output the sample light having the selected sample wavelength range from an exit aperture for illuminating a sample.
摘要:
A microwave chamber for plasma generation. The microwave chamber comprises a launch structure at a first end of the microwave chamber to accommodate a microwave source for producing microwave energy and a termination section at a second end of the microwave chamber opposite the first end. The termination section is configured to substantially block propagation of the microwave energy from the second end of the chamber. The microwave chamber further comprises an internal wall structure for guiding the microwave energy received within the microwave chamber at the first end toward the second end and defines a cavity. The internal wall structure comprises an impedance matching section intermediate the first end and the second end, and a capacitive loaded section intermediate the impedance matching section and the second end, wherein the capacitive loaded section comprises at least one ridge extending along a longitudinal axis of the chamber. The microwave chamber defines a first opening extending through a first wall of the capacitive loaded section and a second opening extending through a second wall of the capacitive loaded section. The second wall is opposite the first wall. The first opening and second opening are configured to cooperate with one another to receive a plasma torch in the capacitive loaded section along an axis extending through first opening and second opening and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the chamber.

The microwave chamber comprises a launch structure at a first end of the microwave chamber to accommodate a microwave source for producing microwave energy and a termination section at a second end of the microwave chamber opposite the first end.

The internal wall structure comprises an impedance matching section intermediate the first end and the second end, and a capacitive loaded section intermediate the impedance matching section and the second end, wherein the capacitive loaded section comprises at least one ridge extending along a longitudinal axis of the chamber.
