Kinetic model of C/H/N/O emissions in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy of organic compounds
نویسندگان
چکیده
A kinetic model to predict the relative intensities of the atomic C/H/N/O emission lines in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been developed for organic compounds. The model includes a comprehensive set of chemical processes involving both neutral and ionic chemistry and physical excitation and de-excitation of atomic levels affecting the neutral, ionic, and excited-state species concentrations. The relative excited-state atom concentrations predicted by this modeling are compared with those derived from the observed LIBS intensities for 355nm ns laser irradiation of residues of two organic compounds on aluminum substrate. The model reasonably predicts the relative excited-state concentrations, as well as their time profiles. Comparison of measured and computed concentrations has also allowed an estimation of the degree of air entrainment. © 2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 300.6365, 000.1570, 350.5400.

متن کاملThe effect of self-absorption correction using internal reference on determining heavy metals concentration by laser induced breakdown spectroscopy
The identification and concentration of heavy metals, which may be so harmful for the body, is determined by the method of calibration-free laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy using a special strategy. First, the plasma temperature is obtained using the Boltzmann plot. Then, a line with an inappreciable self-absorption is considered for each element as the reference. The modified intensities o...

متن کاملTest of a stand-off laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy sensor for the detection of explosive residues on solid surfaces
The detection and characterization of energetic materials at distances up to 45 m using stand-off laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been demonstrated. A field-portable open-path LIB spectrometer working under a coaxial configuration was used. A preliminary study allowed choosing a single-pulse laser source over a double-pulse system as the most suitable source for the stand-off an...
