A New Dimension of Spectral Resolution in ICP: PlasmaQuant® PQ 9000

Taking pictures with your camera you may find that images often look okay on a first glimpse, but when zooming in fine details are barely noticeable. In contrast, the high information density of high resolution images will reveal even the smallest details. Since the introduction of ICP optical emission spectrometry, the spectral resolution has been a main concern with respect to accuracy and sensitivity.
