A Timeline of Atomic
Spectroscopy
This timeline provides a short history of the experimental and theoretical development
of atomic spectroscopy for elemental spectrochemical analysis. Included are the instru-
mental techniques of optical emission (flame, arc/spark, inductively coupled plasma,
glow-discharge, and laser-ablation), atomic absorption, and X-ray fluorescence spec-
troscopy. An attempt has been made to bring together the history of these apparently
disparate spectrometric techniques: It’s all about electron transitions, whether outer-
shell (atomic absorption and optical emission) or inner-shell (X-ray fluorescence).
