摘要: Lack of appropriate standards frequently forces the analyst to use elemental standards. The usefulness correction models is limited by accuracy which input parameters are known. Uncertainties in presumably known quantities (mass absorption coefficients, fluorescence yield, mean ionization potentials, etc.) many cases limiting factors. resulting analytical errors can be minimized judicious choice experimental conditions. This paper will give examples involving corrections for absorption, characteristic lines, and atomic number effects.
