Quantitative emission from femtosecond microplasmas for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy

Femtosecond fiber-laser-based laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy

This paper reports the LIBS studies on elemental composition detection and identification by employing a femtosecond (fs) fiber laser. High quality LIBS spectra were obtained in air using near-infrared fs fiber laser coupled with a broadband high sensitivity spectrometer without gating control. Specific ion and neutral emission lines of different materials have been characterized by line scanni...

Femtosecond laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy: physics, applications, and perspectives.

Progress in technology and society continually places new demands on analytical science and more powerful and informative methods need to be developed. One among them is laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), sometimes also referred to as LIPS (laserinduced plasma spectroscopy). Typically, LIBS measurements are conducted with nanosecond time scale lasers. A review by Song et al.1 and two ...

Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a powerful analytical technique that can be used for the detection and characterization of materials. In LIBS, a focused laser beam is used to generate a plasma plume on the surface of solid and liquid samples or inside the sample volume of gases, liquids, and aerosols. Each excited atom in the plasma emits a unique set of spectral lines, particula...
