Spectra of Thallium (Tl)

Spectra of Thallium (Tl)

The following images are color coded spectrum of thallium undergoing flame or electrical discharge excitation.

Note: This program generates deep 24 bit color plots, therefore you may need to increase the color depth of your system to view subtle details in these spectra.

There may be a small delay as each Applet loads it's element emission line file and computes the spectra...

The spectra are calculated to represent the emission from a flame or a spark source and are based on the work of John Talbot. Additional data for each element were obtained from the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
