Detection of Elemental Composition of Lubricating Grease Using Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Laser-induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (libs) for Elemental Composition Analysis of Aerosols

Laser-induced Breakdown spectroscopy was applied for the elemental analysis of aerosols. Particular care has been taken in optimizing the time resolution of the LIBS spectra and the detection limit of the technique has been evaluated for Na, Ca and Mg atoms. The applicability of the technique has been extended to the case of fly ash generated from coal combustion. Introduction The analysis of a...

Quantitative elemental analysis by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been popular in elemental analysis for various kinds of samples due to its rapid and in-situ measurement using simple equipment. However, quantitative analysis by LIBS is still inferior to conventional element analysis methods in sensitivity and accuracy. In this paper improvement in LIBS is attempted applying computational processing to low-resol...

Detection of uranium using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy.

The goal of this work is a detailed study of uranium detection by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for application to activities associated with environmental surveillance and detecting weapons of mass destruction (WMD). The study was used to assist development of LIBS instruments for standoff detection of bulk radiological and nuclear materials and these materials distributed as con...

Determination of size, concentration and elemental composition of colloids with laser-induced breakdown detection/spectroscopy (LIBD/S).

The application of laser-induced breakdown detection (LIBD) as a new and powerful particle-analyzing technique for the determination of solubility data by monitoring initial colloid generation, when the metal ion concentration just exceeds the solubility at a given pH value, is investigated. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is used for selective analysis of an aqueous suspension of l...
