Different calibration strategies for the analysis of pure copper metal by nanosecond laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
- In this work, different calibration strategies for the determination of trace elements in pure copper metal by nanosecond laser ablation ICP-MS were investigated. In addition to certified reference materials (CRMs), pellets of doped copper powder were used for calibration. The micro homogeneity of the CRMs as well as the solution-doped pellets was sufficient to use them as calibration samples in combination with a laser spot size of 200 µm. In contrast, pellets doped with analytes in solid form showed a significant heterogeneity. For most of the investigated analytes and copper CRMs the measured mass fractions were within ± 20% of their certified values when other copper CRMs were used as calibration samples. When solution-doped powder pellets were used as calibration samples a systematic trend towards mass fractions below the certified values was observed for nearly all elements determined in the analysed CRMs. Thermal fractionation effects during the ablation of the solution-dopedIn this work, different calibration strategies for the determination of trace elements in pure copper metal by nanosecond laser ablation ICP-MS were investigated.

When solution-doped powder pellets were used as calibration samples a systematic trend towards mass fractions below the certified values was observed for nearly all elements determined in the analysed CRMs. Thermal fractionation effects during the ablation of the solution-doped pellets were suspected as the extent of the fractionation depends on the irradiance, whereas fractionation is reduced at higher irradiance.…
