Effect of Surfactants and Static Pressure on Sonoluminescence Brightness for Elemental Analysis
摘要
The use of sonoluminescence to determine elements in natural waters and artificial solutions faces challenges, the main one of which is the low intensity of spectral lines. In most cases, only the Na line at 590 nm is clearly visible. It has been found that adding surfactants to solutions of CaCl2, MnCl2, MgCl2, CuSO4, CrCl3, and seawater can sometimes enhance spectral lines, furthering the practical application of sonoluminescence for elemental analysis. A brief overview of other physicochemical methods for enhancing the brightness of spectral lines in sonoluminescence is provided.
