“…Currently there are numerous applications for LPPs in a wide variety of fields, including laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) [1][2][3][4], pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) [5,6], distinguishing of explosives [7][8][9][10][11][12][13], environmental science [14][15][16], production of classical and novel materials [17][18], cultural heritage monitoring [19] or space exploration [20][21][22]. Beyond traditional applications of LIBS, where inorganic materials are mainly studied for analytical purposes, recent progresses in LIBS lead to analysis of organic and biological samples for detection of chemical and biological warfare agent materials [23][24][25][26][27][28], animal tissues studies [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37], identification of bacteria [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]…”

The spatial-temporal evolution of muscle tissue sample plasma induced by a high-power transversely excited atmospheric (TEA) CO 2 pulsed laser at vacuum conditions (0.1-0.01 Pa) has been investigated using high-resolution optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and imaging methods.The induced plasma shows mainly electronically excited neutral Na, K, C, Mg, H, Ca, N and O Plasma parameters such as electron density and temperature were measured from the spatiotemporal analysis of different species. Average velocities of some plasma species were estimated.

“…Radziemski et al 281 studied emissions from the LIBS plasma in the 100-200 nm region using a sample chamber filled with 9.18 × 10 -3 atm of CO 2 to simulate the Martian atmosphere. The effects of delay time and laser energy on LIBS detection at reduced pressure were examined.…”

Esta revisão descreve os aspectos fundamentais, a instrumentação, as aplicações e tendências futuras de uma técnica analítica que se encontra em seu estágio de consolidação e que está em vias de estabelecer o seu nicho entre as técnicas espectrofotométricas modernas. A técnica é denominada Espectroscopia de Emissão em Plasma Induzido por Laser (em inglês, Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy, LIBS) e sua principal característica está no uso de pulsos de laser como fonte de energia para vaporizar a amostra e excitar a emissão de radiação eletromagnética, a partir de seus elementos e/ou fragmentos moleculares. A radiação emitida é analisada por meio de instrumentos ópticos de alta resolução e as suas intensidades são medidas, usualmente com detectores rápidos de estado sólido. Em conjunto, esses dispositivos permitem a geração e a medida de um espectro de emissão de faixa ampla do fenômeno induzido pelo pulso de laser. O espectro registrado contém informação qualitativa e quantitativa que pode ser correlacionada com a identidade da amostra ou empregada na determinação da quantidade de seus constituintes. Essa revisão é dividida em quatro partes. A primeira aborda aspectos históricos da técnica e os conceitos teóricos relevantes associados com LIBS; então, os aspectos práticos de diversas abordagens experimentais e instrumentais empregadas na implementação da técnica são revistos de forma crítica; as aplicações encontradas na literatura, incluindo aquelas que empregam quimiometria, são classificadas e exemplificadas por meio de trabalhos relevantes recentemente publicados. Finalmente, uma tentativa de estabelecer uma avaliação global e as perspectivas futuras para a técnica é apresentada.This review describes the fundamentals, instrumentation, applications and future trends of an analytical technique that is in its early stages of consolidation and is establishing its definitive niches among modern spectrometric techniques. The technique has been named Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and its main characteristic stands in the use of short laser pulses as the energy source to vaporize samples and excite the emission of electromagnetic radiation from its elements and/or molecular fragments. The emitted radiation is analyzed by high resolution optics and the intensities are recorded, usually by fast triggered solid state detectors. Together, these devices allow producing and registering a wide ranging emission spectrum of the short-lived phenomenon induced by the laser pulse. The spectrum contains qualitative and quantitative information which can be correlated with sample identity or can be used to determine the amount of its constituents. This review is divided in four parts. First, the relevant historical and theoretical concepts associated with LIBS are presented; then the main practical aspects of the several experimental and instrumental approaches employed for implementation of the technique are critically described; the applications related in the literature, including those making use of chemometri...

“…These features make the LIBS technique especially suited for a rover. The LIBS experimental arrangement has to be optimized for space flight, and relevant minerals, rocks and soils must be tested under a simulated Mars atmosphere [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. The LIBS technique allows both qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis of a wide range of materials.…”
