What Does OES Stand For?
OES stands for Optical Emission Spectroscopy
Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials. By exciting atoms in a sample, OES measures the light emitted at characteristic wavelengths as the atoms return to their ground state. This method is widely applied in various fields, including metallurgy, environmental monitoring, and quality control, due to its high sensitivity, rapid results, and ability to analyze multiple elements simultaneously.
