Miniaturized Laser - induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for planetary surface analysis
Introduction: Laser-induced Breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is currently under development for future lander missions to Mars [1–10] and other planets and moons, like Venus or Europa [11, 12]. LIBS spectroscopically determines the visible atomic emission from a plasma that is generated by pulsed laser light focused on a sample surface. The intensities of the many characteristic spectral lines of ...
متن کاملLaser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for Monitoring the Formation of Hydroxyapatite Porous Layers
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is applied to characterize the formation of porous hydroxyapatite layers on the surface of 0.8CaSiO₃-0.2Ca₃(PO₄)₂ biocompatible eutectic glass immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). Compositional and structural characterization analyses were also conducted by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (E...
متن کاملSuccesses and Challenges of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) Applied to Chemical Analyses of Geological Samples
The laser-induced breakdown spectrometer (LIBS) on the ChemCam instrument [1] on the Curiosity rover on Mars has played a vital role in bringing this new technology to the attention of the scientific community. With over 100,000 spectra from individual laser shots collected to date and many more in progress, ChemCam has amply demonstrated the robustness of this technique for remote applications...
متن کاملLaser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for space exploration applications : Influence of the ambient pressure on the calibration curves prepared from soil and clay samples
Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) technique for stand-off detection of geological samples for use on landers and rovers to Mars, and for other space applications. For space missions, LIBS analysis capabilities must be investigated and instrumental development is required to take into account constraints such as size, weight, power...
