Principles and Characteristics Simultaneous multi-element analysis based on emission from a plasma generated by focussing a powerful laser beam on a sample (solid, liquid, or gas) is known as laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and under a variety of semantic variations time-resolved LIBS (TRELIBS), laser ablation emission spectroscopy (LAES), laser ablation atomic emission spectrometry (LA-AES), laser ablation optical emission spectrometry (LA-OES), laser plasma emission spectrometry (L-PES), laser-induced plasma spectroscopy (LIPS), laser spark spectroscopy (LSS), and laser-induced emission spectral analysis (LIESA ). Commercial LIBS analysers were already available in the 60/70s the technique now enjoys a renaissance. [Pg.346]

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a relatively new atomic emission spectroscopy technique that uses a pulsed laser as the excitation sonrce. LIBS is also referred to as laser spark spectroscopy (LASS) and laser-induced plasma spectroscopy, with the unfortunate acronym of LIPS. The technique was developed in the early 1960s, after the invention of the laser, but the high cost and large size of lasers and spectrometers made this a specialized research tool until the 1990s. The early development of LIBS is covered in the reference by Myers et al. Recent advances... [Pg.574]

Different analytical techniques are used for detection of the elemental composition of the solid samples. The simplest is direct detection of emission from the plasma of the ablated material formed above a sample surface. This technique is generally referred to as LIBS or LIPS (laser induced breakdown/plasma spectroscopy). Strong continuous background radiation from the hot plasma plume does not enable detection of atomic and ionic lines of specific elements during the first few hundred nanoseconds of plasma evolution. One can achieve a reasonable signal-to-noise ra-... [Pg.233]
