Description

The measurements show quantitatively the strong change in Al line radiation due to the removal of the oxide coating from the aluminium surface. This fact should be taken into consideration not only in case of hollow cathode lasers but also using Al hollow cathode lamps for atomic absorption and atomic fluorescence spectroscopy. Even with factory made hollow cathode lamps, the performance of the lamp can be improved by running the discharge for several hours if it were not used for a long time. (author)
