Description
PIXE is a trace analytical method. During the sample preparation process for PIXE analysis, there may be loss of element due to sublimation or evaporation that must be considered for quantitative analysis. To avoid such problems, suitable droplet PIXE system has been developed for determination of elemental abundances of liquid samples in atmospheric condition. The system has several dripping modes in order to enhance advantage of dripping method over static liquid target method. The droplet-PIXE system has been applied to a few case studies. Its advantages over other PIXE system will be discussed in this paper. (author)
