Abstract: The adapter shaping an electromagnetic field heats toroidal plasma discharge. It is intended for use in plasma torches dedicated for excitation/ionization sources in spectrometers. The adapter includes at least two electromagnetic field shaping elements, which are stretched between the bushing of the upper microwave connection and the bushing of the lower microwave connection. An element shaping electromagnetic field is positioned to the surface pitch of the bushings at an angle ranging from 0 to 90 degrees.

Abstract: A torch consists of an inner tube (1), a coaxially positioned outer tube (2), and at least three electrodes (3), whose tips are evenly spaced around the torch axis inside the outer tube (2). At the end of outer tube (2) there are evenly spaced electrode ports (3), extending in parallel to the torch axis from the outer tube end edge (2). In addition, the torch comprises a cylindrical head (4) sized to fit the outer diameter of the outer tube (2) provided with the same number of electrode ports (3). In another embodiment, the torch is provided with at least six electrodes (3) spaced in two planes perpendicular to the torch axis, while the head (4) has the same number of ports, wherein the difference in depth of every second port corresponds to the distance between the planes.

Abstract: The excitation source consists of at least three identical electrodes arranged symmetrically in relation to the axis of the central tube, which supplies an analytical sample, and electrode cooling agent supply and removal systems. The electrodes are mounted in an electrically isolated metal housing so that the electrode tops are placed at the central tube outlet, and their ends are shorted in the power supply point with the microwave connections embedded in the housing on the extension of the electrode longitudinal axis and the connections are coupled with the microwave power source, the length of each electrode is ¼ L, where L is the length of the microwave. Each electrode has a hollowed longitudinal flow chamber for the cooling agent connected with metal side tubes, which supply and remove the cooling agent, while outside tube ends are electrically shorted with the housing.
