Aerosol analysis by micro laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy: A new protocol for particulate matter characterization in filters

Atomic spectrometry update: review of advances in atomic spectrometry and related techniques

“…This section particularly describes the latest instrumental developments and fundamental studies related to LIBS. Reviews that cover detailed applications can be found elsewhere; for instance: Zhang et al 114 reviewed the recent advances in the use of LIBS for in situ and online detection of pollutants under atmospheric environments; Liu et al 115 reviewed novel approaches of LIBS for coal analysis; Khan et al 116 discussed the pros and cons of different LIBS methods to improve the detection of trace elements; and Marina-Montes et al 117 described a new protocol for particulate matter characterisation in filters using LIBS. Hu et al , 118 Wang et al 119 and Zhang et al 120 described advances in LIBS quantification methods, in particular related to calibration-free LIBS methods (CF-LIBS), which allows quantitative analysis without the use of standards.…”

A Review of Atmospheric Aerosols in Antarctica: From Characterization to Data Processing

“…The determination of these compounds requires different techniques, depending upon the sample and nature of the inorganic compounds present. The chemical compositions of aerosols can be determined with high accuracy by various analytical techniques, such as aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) [110], inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) [43,94], inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) [23], scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX) [111], Raman spectroscopy (RS) [100,112], and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) [113]. Accurate measurements and characterization of aerosols require the collection of representative samples in the field as well as their subsequent analysis in a laboratory.…”

Accuracy improvement of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy coal analysis by hybrid transfer learning

“…Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is an atomic emission spectrometry with many advantages such as no or less sample pretreatment, simultaneous multi-element analysis, and online in situ analysis. 6,7 LIBS has been applied in the eld of coal analysis due to these advantages. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] However, LIBS typically requires collecting calibration spectra with known content and building a quantitative model to predict the content of unknown coal samples.…”
