Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is a technique for high-temperature vaporization and excitation of samples for instrumental analytical chemistry. It is especially popular for generating samples for atomic emission spectrometry (AES) and mass spectrometry.

The convenience of ICP for AES has led AES to displace neutron activation analysis in a number of applications, since NAA historically has needed a non-portable nuclear reactor.
