   <dim:field mdschema="dc" element="description" qualifier="abstract" lang="en_US">Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) has emerged as a dominant spectroscopic technique for the determination of metals in a plethora of sample types. The bulk of the interest has been placed on trace metal analysis, and the analysis of nonmetals has been gaining increased interest since the 1980&amp;apos;s. In this work, an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer is used for the determination of nonmentals in different sample types. The present research covers three projects using ICP-AES to detect nonmetals by monitoring their emission in the vacuum ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.</dim:field>
