Laser ablation fast pulse discharge plasma spectroscopy analysis of Pb,Mg and Sn in soil

Laser ablation fast pulse discharge plasma spectroscopy (LA-FPDPS) technique is a recently developed atomic emission analytical technique that is analogous to dual pulse laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (DP-LIBS). LA-FPDPS, however, uses a periodical oscillating discharge plasma generation method on samples instead of the second laser beam in DP-LIBS. Here we describe the electric characteristics and its application to the analysis of Pb, Mg and Sn in soil. Due to the fast discharge process, the peak power deposition rate is up to 1.5 MW, although the discharge energy is relatively small. The main energy deposition process only last for ~ 4 μs. From the measured spectra, calibration curves for Pb, Mg and Sn in soil were derived and the limits of detection were 1.5 μg/g, 34 μg/g and 0.16 μg/g respectively.     

Laser ablation of copper based alloys by single and double pulse laser induced breakdown spectroscopy

Single and double pulse laser induced breakdown spectroscopy was applied to the analysis of copper based alloys samples, in order to investigate the material ablation process under two different experimental conditions. An Nd:YAG laser, emitting at the fundamental wavelength (1064 nm) for a fixed value of total energy with the same pulse width, has been used for both set-up configurations. Certified samples of copper based alloys were examined in order to investigate the effect of their different compositions on the ablation process efficiency. The craters produced by the laser on the samples surfaces were measured by a contact profilometer in order to evaluate the mass of ablated material. In this respect the differences in behaviour of the single and the double pulse ablation for Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), respectively, have been considered. The dependence, under the same experimental conditions, of the LIBS background emission of the different ablated masses of the material has also been investigated, by looking for normalization algorithms for quantitative data reduction.The behaviour of some peculiar intensity ratios, suitable for building calibration curves, has been studied in order to evaluate the trend in fractionated evaporation on going from the single pulse to the double pulse technique.

Laser ablation of powdered samples and analysis by means of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy

The presented work proves the capacities of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) as a fast, universal, and versatile technique for analysis of complex materials as ceramics. This paper reports on the analysis of ceramic raw materials (brick clays and kaolin) submitted to laser ablation in the form of pressed pellets. Spectrographic study was provided by standard single-pulse LIBS technique and orthogonal reheating double-pulse LIBS. It was found that both methods are comparable in terms of analytical performance, if adequate experimental parameters and signal detection systems are used.     

Laser pulse reflection by anisotropic plasma

The effect of anomalous amplification of test laser pulse reflected by a nonequilibrium plasma formed under atom ionization by a strong pulse of circularly polarized wave is described. It is shown that the gain in radiation intensity may reach ten orders of magnitude. The most effective amplification takes place for frequencies comparable with the Weibel instability growth rate.     

CARS spectroscopy of radio-frequency discharge plasma in hydrogen

The population of the vibrational and rotational levels of hydrogen is studied by the narrow-and broadband CARS spectroscopy in capacitive and inductive-capacitive radio-frequency discharge plasmas. Computational codes are developed to analyze and process CARS spectra of hydrogen obtained under conditions of disturbance of thermodynamic equilibrium over internal degrees of freedom of molecules. To interpret the measurement results, a model is developed, which makes it possible to calculate the vibrational temperature in radio-frequency discharge plasmas. It is shown that the broadband CARS spectrometer in combination with the software package developed appreciably reduces the time necessary to determine the vibrational and rotational temperatures.     

Laser pulse modulation instabilities in partially stripped plasma

The laser pulse modulation instabilities in partially stripped plasma were discussed based on the phase and group velocities of the laser pulse and the two processes that modulation instabilities excited. The excitation condition and growth rate of the modulation instability were obtained. It was found that the positive chirp and competition between normal and abnormal dispersions play important roles in the modulation instability. In the partially stripped plasma, the increased positive chirp enhances the modulation instability, and the dispersion competition reduces it.     

Combination of spark discharge and nanoparticle-enhanced laser-induced plasma spectroscopy

A combination of spark discharge and nanoparticle-enhanced laser-induced plasma spectroscopy is investigated. Depositing Au nanoparticles at the surface of a brass target can enhance the coupling of the target and the laser. More atoms in the brass sample are excited. As a secondary excitation source, spark discharge reheats the generated plasma, which further amplifies the enhancement results of nanoparticles. The spectral intensity with the spark discharge increases more obviously with nanoparticle concentration increasing than without the spark discharge. Also, plasma temperature and electron density are calculated by the Boltzmann plot and Stark broadening. The changes in the plasma temperature and electron density are consistent with the spectral emission changes.
