Two of the crucible injected at 1 cmworking solution III (3 µg/cm); in the other two crucible injected at 1 cmworking solution III(1.5 µg/cm) in the remaining two of the crucible administered by 1 cmof water. All six crucibles were placed on the cold electric stove, the sample is dissolved by gradual heating, evaporated to dryness, calcined in a muffle furnace at a temperature of 700−750 °C for 25 min and cooled to room temperature. The obtained crystal niobium lightly ground in a mortar and stored in a desiccator in packages of tracing paper.

A crystal of yttrium or gadolinium in lodowych crucible was placed in 300 mg of the sample of yttrium or gadolinium, previously translated into oxide or oxides, pour 1 cmwater and 2 cmof hydrochloric acid. Two of the crucible introduce working solutions II to the value of the mass fraction of the designated impurities REE exceeded their estimated value in the sample is 1.5−3 times. In two other Cup pour 1 cmof water.
When analyzing samples with a mass fraction of each of the designated impurities more than 1·10%, each impurity is determined from the individual crystallophosphorus. To determine each impurity in four lodowych crucible was placed in 300 mg of the sample of an oxide of yttrium or gadolinium oxide. Two of the crucible enter the corresponding working solution II so that the value of the mass fraction of the designated impurities was larger than the expected value in the sample is 1.5−3 times. In two other Cup pour 1 cmof water.
The content of each crucible is stirred with a glass rod, evaporated to dryness in an oven at 100−110 °C, transferred to a mortar and grind for 1−2 minutes, moved back into the same crucible, calcined in a muffle furnace at 1000−1100 °C for 1 h and cooled to room temperature.

3.2. Excitation and registration of luminescence spectra
Every crystalliser ground in a mortar and placed in a cuvette with a quartz window. In the analysis of each oxide excite and record the luminescence spectra of crystal phosphors four sequentially starting with most supplements. A cuvette crystallophosphorus placed behind the disc surface (see hell.1). The luminescence spectra excited by a spark discharge between the fixed tungsten electrode and one of the four mobile tungsten electrode, mounted on the metal disk surface, rotated by the engine of SL-521 with a speed of 50. Wherein the input slit of the monochromator shutter closed shutter. The width of the entrance slit of the monochromator 15−20 ám, the output — 20−40 microns. 2·10s after termination of the spark discharge entrance slit of the monochromator is opened and recorded in the afterglow of crystallophosphorus for 2·10s.
(Changed edition, Rev. N 2).
3.2.1. The luminescence spectra of each crystallophosphorus excite and register in sequence starting with most supplements. Crystalliser placed in the cuvette-probatively, then, lifting the flap, introduce it into the chamber through a locking hole. The luminescence spectra excited by x-rays, when the voltage on the x-ray tube is 25 kV for the determination of neodymium and 15 kV for the determination of praseodymium and samarium. The width of the entrance slit of the monochromator and PMT voltage set in the analysis sample with more additive so that the height of the peak on registerme was 40−50% of full-scale potentiometer. The background noise should not exceed 10% of the scale, which is achieved by gain control potentiometer. The width of the exit slit should be 1.5 times the width of the entrance slit.
