Abstract

Abstract Photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) is applied for the absolute determination at room temperature of ultra trace concentration of cobalt and copper ions in aqueous solution. The samples have been prepared by percolating 2 liters of solution prepared from Merck Titrisol Standards in 200 mg Merck-I cationic exchange resin. With the present experimental conditions the detection limit is 20 ppb and 200 ppb for copper and cobalt ions respectively within an overall accuracy of 5%. The response of the spectrometer has been calibrated using ICP technique.
