摘要
We report on the first atom trap trace analysis (ATTA) measurements of Kr in Xe samples with Kr/Xe concentrations of O (10 ppt)(3) and O(100 ppt). The ATTA results were independently confirmed by measurements of the same samples with a rare gas mass spectrometer. Measurements of samples with Kr/Xe concentrations below these levels were inhibited by a residual Kr background in the ATTA apparatus, attributed to a cumulative cross sample contamination due to the radio frequency plasma discharge source region from tests with Kr-rich gas samples.
