Impact of intensity error on temperature estimation in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy: a numerical study
Lekha Mary John,

Abstract:Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a cutting-edge technique for the compositional analysis of multi-element materials. Under standard circumstances for laser-induced plasma (T
e = 1 eV and N
e = 1016 cm−3), we simulated the emission spectrum of a binary alloy (with 70 wt.% Cu–30 wt.% Al). We used the Saha ionization equilibrium formulas to calculate the population of neutral and ionized species of each constituent element, and the Boltzmann distribution to estima… Show more
