What Does CFAES Stand For?

CFAES stands for Carbon Furnace Atomic Emission Spectrometry

CFAES, or Carbon Furnace Atomic Emission Spectrometry, is an analytical technique used for the detection and quantification of trace elements in various samples. This method involves the use of a carbon furnace to efficiently atomize the sample, allowing for enhanced sensitivity and precision in measurement. By measuring the emitted light from excited atomic species, CFAES provides valuable insights in fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, and quality control in industrial processes.
