Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention relates to apparatus for utilizing the Zeeman (or Stark) effect for achieving background correction in an atomic absorption spectrophotometer using an electromagnetic optical effect for background correction and causing the spectrophotometer to provide time varying radiation. A radiation responsive device produces an output signal which varies in time and at certain times is proportional to the background absorption, and the radiation responsive device is responsive to a linearly increasing supply signal to produce an exponentially increasing output signal upon receiving a fixed radiation level. The specific improvement provided by this invention is a device for supplying the …
