ABSTRACT:
Afterglow spectroscopy allows observing light emission of gaseous species in absence of direct plasma light. This absence avoids the creation of a background spectrum obscuring weak emission from trace species. The invention describes a flowing afterglow version monitoring in-situ the cleanup of vacuum tools during pump/purge cycles. The invention also describes an intermittent afterglow version suitable for trace gas analysis at atmospheric pressure.
