Abstract
Increasingly Laser-induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is being exploited in qualitative and quantitative analysis of solid samples. While the technique has been around for a number of years the recent, rapid development in laser and detector technology have made it possible to implement the technique for use in real-time and remote analysis. In general, LIBS has been implemented by using pulses from a Nd:YAG laser for micro plasma generation, with the laser radiation transmitted in free air, and by collecting the plasma emission via an optical fibre.
