| This paper uses an Acousto Optic Tunable Filter. This device works as a narrow pass, but tunable, optical filter. The authors use it to measure Manganese in steel by measuring intensity at 15 different wavelengths - 5 to determine the peak intensity of a Mn line, 5 to determine background and 5 to determine Fe (for signal ratioing). Device has the advantage of being compact. However, has disadvantages common to all monochromator methods where intensities from different laser shots are compared | |||||
