Abstract.
In open air and without any type of inert gas, stable and bright micro plasma was successfully obtained using Liquid Sampling Atmospheric Pressure Glow Discharge (LS-APGD). The discharge current varied between 20 to 80 mA with a maximum voltage 550 V, discharge gap 0.5–2 mm and solution pH of 1. The produced plasma operates in the normal glow discharge region at a low power (11–40 W). For analytical application the linear dynamic range is obtained up to 500 µg mL−1. Limits of detection based on 3σ of the background intensity determined for Ca I (422.673 nm), Cu I (324.754 nm), Fe I (497.5 nm), and Zn I (213.856 nm) are 0.3, 0.65, 0.1, 0.7 µg mL−1 respectively.
