The long-term thermal and thermomechanical errors are found to be in the range of a few picometers. The short-term instability and mechanical instability are found to contribute very little error to wavelength positioning. The wavelength calibration algorithm is described. Its use improves the accuracy by a factor of 5 to 10 by comparison with results from the use of the diffraction grating equation alone.", pages = "993-998", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/sas/sas/1991/00000045/00000006/art00012", doi = "doi:10.1366/0003702914336264", keyword = "ICP emission spectroscopy, Wavelength accuracy" }
