Abstract
ICP-AES line intensity data were fitted to a minimum-curvature smooth curve generated with the aid of a cubic semispline algorithm. These spline-fitted curves were used to obtain linewidth ratios which can provide accurate indication of spectral overlap with the use of only sample and standard spectra.
