UV-Laser Ablation Spectroscopy in Element Analysis of Solid Surface

A multispectroscopic structural study of lead silicate glasses over an extended range of compositions

“…This plume is the result of the molecular species being removed from the surface creating a ''plasma cloud" above the sample face. If the density of the plume is high enough, it can lead to gas phase reactions [8] and thus the peaks of the resulting spectra will no longer truly represent the glass composition, though this kind of higher-power arrangement is often [9][10][11][12][13] used for elemental analysis. We never saw visual evidence of a plume, and we also note that such a plume would drastically alter the resolution of our instrument, a phenomenon which was never observed.…”

Understanding the thermal ageing performance of epoxy aluminium nitride nanocomposites through space charge studies and by LIBS analysis

“…The elemental composition of the material analytically can be determined, irrespective of the state of material by adopting LIBS [18]. This method of detection has many advantages like less usage of the sample, high sensitivity, non‐destructive, and remote application capability.…”

Understanding the electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of epoxy magnesium oxide nanocomposites

“…Irrespective of the state of material, the elemental composition of material can be analytically determined by using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy [13]. This technique has many advantages like, nearly non-destructive, less utilisation of sample, high sensitivity, and remote-sensing capability.…”
