Optimization of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for Determination of Quantum Dots (Qds) in Liquid Solutions
Here we report on the utilization of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for determination of Quantum Dots (QDs) in liquid solution. The process of optimization of experimental conditions from choosing the carrier medium to application of colloid QDs is described. The main goal was to get the best possible signal to noise ratio. The results obtained from the measurements confirmed the c...
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 کاملMiniaturized 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 کاملCharacterization of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) emission lines for the identification of chlorides, carbonates, and sulfates in salt/basalt mixtures for the application to MSL ChemCam data
Ancient environmental conditions on Mars can be probed through the identification of minerals on its surface, including water-deposited salts and cements dispersed in the pore space of sedimentary rocks. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) analyses by the martian rover Curiosity’s ChemCam instrument can indicate salts, and ChemCam surveys aid in identifying and selecting sites for furth...
متن کاملLaser-induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for Real Time and Online Elemental Analysis
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a laser based diagnostics used to study atomic emission from the expanding plasma plume formed during the lasermatter interaction. It provides valuable information about the composition of the target material. LIBS has proved its potential application in the analysis of impurities, pollutants and toxic elements in various types of matrices of diffe...
