Abstract: The determination of the elements of groups ⅢA and ⅣA by means of microwave plasma torch atomic emission spectrometry(MPT-AES) was studied systematically. Sample solutions were introduced into the plasma with a pneumatic nebulizer in continuous sampling mode and flow injection (FI) mode. The emission characteristics of these elements were investigated in details, and the basic data obtained are very important to the development of MPT AES. The analytical performances were examined. For most elements, the detection limits obtained by this method were principally the same as those obtained by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES).
