Experimental data from a nitrogen inductively coupled plasma (ICP) operating at a minimum power of 1.3 kW was sustained with a conventional spectrochemical system. A preliminary description of its operation and properties is reported. Preliminary data evaluating the spectrochemical potential of the nitrogen ICP are summarized for calcium in comparison with argon ICP. Economically nitrogen ICP appears to be favored. (DP)
