Working principle:
The absorption of light by atoms provides a powerful analytical tool for both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) is based upon the principle that free atoms in the ground state can absorb light of a certain wavelength. Absorption for each element is specific, no other elements absorb this wavelength.
