The ablation interaction between a laser and solid samples, which affects the analytical performance for laser ablation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (LA-ICP-AES), was studied. The emission intensities of elements observed by LA-ICP-AES (LA-ICP-AES element signal intensities) for different solid samples were measured under different laser defocusing conditions with a fixed laser output energy. It was found that the optimum laser defocusing conditions were dependent on the different solid samples with different sample characteristics, and also on the different elements with different elemental characteristics in each solid sample. A low-alloy steel, pellets containing different Fe concentrations (0 - 100% Fe pellet), and a pond sediment pellet were used as different solid samples. The variations of the LA-ICP-AES Fe signal intensities observed under different laser defocus conditions were completely different between the low-alloy steel and the pond sediment pellet. The changes in the LA-ICP-AES Fe signal intensities for 90 and 100% Fe pellets were similar to that of the low-alloy steel. However, pellets with lower Fe concentrations (less than 70%) showed different trends and the defocusing behavior became closer to that of the pond sediment pellet. The LA-ICP-AES signal intensities of other elements were also evaluated, and were compared for different solid samples and different defocusing behavior. It was observed that the changes in the LA-ICP-AES signal intensities of almost all elements in the pond sediment pellet showed a similar trend to those of Fe for different laser defocus positions; that is, the elemental fractionation for these elements in the pond sediment pellet seemed to be relatively small. On the contrary, it was found that the LA-ICP-AES Si, Ti, and Zr signal intensities for low-alloy steel showed different trends compared to those of other elements, including Fe, under different defocusing conditions; that is, the elemental fractionation observed for the low-alloy steel was larger than that of the pond sediment pellet. From these results, different ablation interactions between the laser and the different solid samples were considered, and attributed to the sample characteristics, such as the matrix, hardness, and conductivity. Elemental fractionation was attempted to be explained by using elemental characteristics, such as the melting point and ionization energy of the elements.  相似文献

The source of signal variations that governs the analytical performance of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) was investigated in this study. In order to specify the source of signal variations of LA-ICP-MS, laser-induced plasma (LIP) Fe emission, LA-ICP-MS Fe+ and LA-ICP-MS Ni+ signals were used as internal standards for the determination of trace elements in low-alloy steel certified reference materials (BS 50D and JSS 1005-1008). Fe 1373.5 nm emission signals from LIP were measured, while trace element LA-ICP-MS signals were collected. After that, the LIP emission signals, LA-ICP-MS Fe+ and LA-ICP-MS Ni+ signals were used as internal standards, and the analytical performance was evaluated by the RSDs and the correlation coefficients (r) of the calibration curves. The improvement factors were dependent on the internal standardization methods. Analytical precisions (RSDs) of trace element LA-ICP-MS signals were improved by factors of 1.5-3.3 using LIP Fe emission signals as an internal standard. The improvement factors of 2.5 - 5.9 and 4.1 - 17 were obtained by using LA-ICP-MS Fe+ and LA-ICP-MS Ni+ signals as internal standards, respectively. Better correlation coefficients (r) were also obtained using the LA-ICP-MS signal compensation (0.9985 by LA-ICP-MS Fe+ and 0.9996 by LA-ICP-MS Ni+) rather than the LIP Fe emission compensation (0.9932). In this paper we compare and discuss the analytical performance achieved by LA-ICP-MS using LIP Fe emission, LA-ICP-MS Fe+ and LA-ICP-MS Ni+ signals as internal standards.  相似文献

The possibility of internal standardisation in laser ablation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (LA-ICP-AES) of geological materials by added Sc2O3 and Y2O3 has been examined to cover the wide range of concentrations of major and minor constituents both in silicate rocks and limestones. A Nd?:?YAG laser (355 nm, 10 Hz, 10 mJ per shot) was used for the ablation of discs obtained by fusion of the mixture of samples and oxides of Sc and Y with lithium tetraborate. The flux/sample ratio was in the range from 6 to 10. The contents of analytes were within the concentration range from hundredths to tens of percentage. The trace elements copper and nickel were studied, too. An ICP emission spectrometer OPTIMA 3000 DV was used for the measurement of Si, Al, Ca, Mg, Sr, Ba, Fe, Ti, Mn, Ni, Cu, Na and K analyte lines and Y and Sc reference lines in the axial observation mode. The long-term and the short-term repeatability of measurement were improved by employing scandium or yttrium internal references lines for the above analytes from 6% to 1.5% of RSD and from 2.4% to 1.0% of RSD, respectively. The correlation of signals with concentrations was improved in terms of the correlation coefficient r from 0.90–0.97 to 0.98–0.998 and the relative uncertainity on the centroid of concentrations was improved 2–3 times. A single calibration graph covering the concentration range both in silicates and carbonates is possible for each of elements, as the matrix effects are compensated for by internal standards and the excess of Li2B4O7.  相似文献

UV laser ablation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (LA-ICP-AES) has been applied to the direct determination of additives in solid poly(vinyl chloride) materials. A Nd:YAG laser, operating at its fourth harmonic (266 nm), was used with a beam masking device, in the most reproducible conditions, to introduce solid particles into the plasma torch of a simultaneous ICP-AES system. Emphasis was placed on both precision and accuracy in the analysis of PVC materials by LA-ICP-AES. A series of six in-house PVC reference materials was prepared by incorporating several additives in increasing concentrations. Three alternative methods were evaluated to certify the amount of incorporated elements: ICP-AES with sample dissolution, NAA and XRF. Satisfactory results and good agreement were obtained for seven elements (Al, Ca, Cd, Mg, Sb, Sn and Ti) among the ten incorporated. Sample homogeneity appeared to be satisfactory, and calibration graphs obtained by LA-ICP-AES for several elements are presented. Finally, the performance of the technique in terms of repeatability (1.6-5%), reproducibility (2–5%), and limits of detection was investigated.  相似文献

This paper focuses on the interpretation of the origin of the continuum radiation in Laser Induced Plasma (LIP) emission spectra, a subject that has received little consideration in the literature when compared to the analysis of the line emission spectrum. The understanding of the spectral peculiarities observed immediately after the laser pulse, when the continuum radiation prevails on discrete emission lines, can be extremely important to retrieve the initial conditions of LIP and to correlate the produced plasma to the ablation mechanism. In this work, in addition to a qualitative interpretation of the LIP continuum in the initial stage of expansion, a methodology is proposed for a better measurement of the atomic temperature in the expansion stage of the LIP. Such methodology is based on the analysis of the combined Boltzmann and Planck plots. The results obtained stress once again the importance of considering non equilibrium effects in the initial stage of LIP expansion.  相似文献

Resonant laser ablation (RLA) is a solid sampling technique that makes use of radiation trapping, and desorption induced by electronic transitions (DIET), to produce enhanced numbers of analyte atoms in the laser-induced plasma (LIP). This is achieved by tuning the laser ablation wavelength to a gas-phase resonant transition of the analyte. In this paper, RLA was coupled with detection of optical emission in the LIP to perform resonant laser-induced breakdown spectroscopic (RLIBS) experiments with a miniature, portable spectrometer. The experiments were designed to continue an examination of the proposed mechanism of RLA, and to perform an initial assessment of the applicability of RLIBS for quantitative analysis. The study indicated that for a multi-component sample, such as steel, the signal of the wavelength-targeted atom was enhanced the most compared to other constituents, and this supported the hypothesis that the DIET phenomenon is involved. Also, RLIBS experiments indicated that ablation yields of other components were enhanced by resonant ablation of the major component, which supported the contribution of radiation trapping to the RLA phenomenon. A linear, positive slope of the RLA induced atom yield as a function of concentration suggested that the RLA mechanism allows for quantitative analysis of solid samples. Calibration graphs were created for tungsten in spectrographic steels using RLIBS. A limit of detection of 4% was calculated for tungsten in steel.  相似文献

Included (Si, Ca) and added (Li, B) internal standards (IS) have been used comparatively in LA-ICP-AES of silicates and limestones to improve both precision and accuracy. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (355 nm, 10 Hz, 10 mJ per shot) has been applied for ablation. Samples have been prepared by fusion with Li2B4O7 and measured using a Perkin-Elmer Optima 3000 ICP system. Both types of IS have given a relative standard deviation (RSD) less than 2–1%, which improved the repeatability by a factor of 2–10 and calibration graphs have been linear over the whole concentration range.  相似文献

Time-resolved Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was applied for observations of emission spectra from ablation products induced by a Nd:YLF laser with a 2.5 kHz repletion rate. The infrared emission spectra from Fe, Cu, Zn, and Al atoms were observed in the 2.5–5 μm region. The observed emission spectrum from iron ablation in the 2500 cm−1 region agrees very well with solar absorption spectrum, where new lines have been detected in the present experiment in addition to the lines observed from a hollow cathode discharge. When O2 was added to the carbon ablation, emissions from vibrationally excited CO were observed with non-equilibrium vibrational distribution.  相似文献

Infrared laser ablation (IRLA) was studied as a sample-introduction technique for the analysis of steels by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). A comparison of two IRLA-ICP-AES systems based on Q-switched nanosecond Nd: YAG lasers was performed. The beam of the LINA-Spark atomizer (LSA Sarl, Cully, Switzerland) based on the Surelite 1-20 laser (Continuum, USA) was moved along a circle. A Perkin-Elmer Optima 3000 DV ICP system was used both with lateral and axial viewing modes. A laboratory-made ablation system based on the Brilliant laser (Quantel) was coupled to a Jobin-Yvon 170 Ultrace ICP (lateral viewing, polychromator part employed). A sample was rotated along a circle during ablation. Linearity of calibration plots was verified at least up to 19% Cr and 12% Ni without internal standardization for both LA-ICP-AES systems. Other elements examined were Mo up to 3%, Mn up 1.5%, Si up to 1.7%, and Cu up to 0.15%. The reproducibility was in the range 5-1 %RSD for a mass percentage 0.5-20% of steel constituents. The relative uncertainty of the centroids of the calibration lines was in the range from +/- 4% to +/- 12% for Cr, Ni, Mn, Mo, and Si, and from +/- 8% to +/- 19% for Cu. The lowest determinable quantities were calculated for calibration dependencies. Performances of both the IR-LA-ICP-AES were comparable.  相似文献

Two different types of emission from excited NO2 were observed using pulsed ruby laser light at 6943 Å. The first type of fluorescence was seen in the near-IR and results from the single photon excitation of NO2 from the ground (2A1) state. By observing the emission as a function of time an unexpected behavior was observed in the near IR and could be explained by a consecutive deactivation mechanism, wherein a secondary species is preferentially detected. A second type of emission recently observed in the blue spectral region is weaker and is due to a multiphoton process. The intensity of the blue emission is a function of the cube of the laser intensity at low pressures and approaches the square at high pressures. We attribute this variation to simultaneous deactivation of the NO2* intermediate by collision (square) and by anti-Stokes Raman scattering off of the NO2* (cube).  相似文献

We tested McClure's method for measuring the triplet extinction coefficients εT of organic compounds on anthracene and pyrene, using the u.v. lines from a krypton ion cw laser as a steady-state excitation source. Our values for anthracene εT = 82 × 1031/mole cm at 426 nm and pyrene εT = 37 × 103l/mole cm at 413 nm agree well with values obtained by other methods. McClure derived his linear relationship from kinetic considerations. One simply measures triplet optical densities (ODT) at a fixed wavelength (e.g. at a triplet absorption maximum) as functions of different cw laser excitation intensities (powers) Iex. A plot of 1/ODT against 1/Iex yields a straight line. Extrapolating to the intersection of the ordinate (1/Iex = 0, or Iex = ∞) yields 1/ODT. Since, at infinite excitation intensity Iex, the concentration of the triplet state molecules NT is equal to the original concentration NS of the ground state concentration, εT can be easily calculated from εT = ODT/NSd where ODT is the triplet optical density at infinite excitation intensity, N S is the original concentration of molecules (at ground state), and d is the thickness of the sample. The success of this method requires the production of high concentrations of triplet state molecules NT, as well as steady-state excitation. CW lasers fulfill all these requirements. We discuss the spectroscopic equipment employed for measuring triplet optical densities in some detail. Methods for reducing heat gradients (noise) in liquid nitrogen, laser excitation spot sizes, reduction of spherical aberrations, etc., are reviewed. We varied the cw laser illumination density (laser power/area) by setting the focusing lens at different distances from the sample, and measured 1/ODT as a function of 1/Iex. As long as the size of the excitation area was not below a critical size, all the straight lines obtained at different lens settings converged well into only one value of 1/ODT. Measurements were also performed at different concentrations of the solutes.  相似文献

HF laser emission was observed in the flash photolysis (λ ? 165 nm) of mixtures of O2 and CHFCl2. A total of 15 transitions ranging from Δυ = 3 → 2 to 1 → o were identified. The laser intensity was found to increase linearly with flash energy. The effects of temperature, reactant concentration and buffer gas pressure have been examined. The stimulated emission is concluded to result primary from the following reactions:
No CO2 laser emission was detected. A simple gain calculation revealed that only a small fraction of reaction energy (Eint ≈ 180 kcal/mole) was channeled into the HF product. Since the addition of D2 generated weak DF laser emission (Δυ = 3 → 2 to 1 → o) at only a minor expense (< 10%) to the HF emission, F atoms are believed to be formed as one of the minor decomposition products of FCOOH.  相似文献

We investigate the influence of sample temperature on the dynamics and optical emission of laser induced plasma for various solid materials. Bulk aluminum alloy, silicon wafer, and metallurgical slag samples are heated to temperature TS  500 °C and ablated in air by Nd:YAG laser pulses (wavelength 1064 nm, pulse duration approx. 7 ns). The plasma dynamics is investigated by fast time-resolved photography. For laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) the optical emission of plasma is measured by Echelle spectrometers in combination with intensified CCD cameras. For all sample materials the temporal evolution of plume size and broadband plasma emission vary systematically with TS. The size and brightness of expanding plumes increase at higher TS while the mean intensity remains independent of temperature. The intensity of emission lines increases with temperature for all samples. Plasma temperature and electron number density do not vary with TS. We apply the calibration-free LIBS method to determine the concentration of major oxides in slag and find good agreement to reference data up to TS = 450 °C. The LIBS analysis of multi-component materials at high temperature is of interest for technical applications, e.g. in industrial production processes.  相似文献

The UV emission of Cl2 from a new valence-shell state having 0+u symmetry (Tc ≈ 59774 cm?1, rc ≈ 3.0 Å) was observed by focusing ≈ 500 nm laser radiation to gaseous chlorine. Excitation was achieved by virtual two-photon absorption from the B 3Π0+u state formed by single-photon absorption stepwisely. The emission spectra showed transitions to the ground state as well as to the repulsive grade estate dissociating to Cl2P) + Cl(2P) products.  相似文献

We measured thermal diffusivity and heat capacity of polymers by laser flash method, and the effects of measurement condition and sample size on the accuracy of the measurement are discussed. Thermal diffusivities of PTFE films with thickness 200–500 μm were the same as those data that have been reported. But, the data for film thickness less than 200 μm have to be corrected by an equation to cancel thermal resistance between sample film and graphite layers for receiving light and detecting temperature. Thermal diffusivity was almost unaffected by the size of area vertical to the direction of laser pulse, because heat flow for the direction could be negligible. Specific heat capacity of polymer film was exactly measured at room temperature, provided that low absorbed energy (< 0.3 J) and enough sample mass (> 25 mg) were satisfied as measuring conditions. Thermal diffusivity curve of PS or PC versus temperature had a terrace around Tg, whereas that of PE decreased monotonously with increasing in temperature until Tm. Further, we estimated relative specific heat capacity (RCp) by calculating ratios of heat capacities at various temperatures to the one at 299 K. RCp for PS obtained by laser flash method was larger than that obtained by DSC method, whereas the RCps for PE obtained by the both methods agreed with one another until Tm (305 K). RCp for PS decreased linearly, with increase in temperature after it increased linearly until Tg (389 K), showing similarity to temperature dependency of thermal conductivity. RCp for PE also decreased until Tm, similar to thermal conductivity. ©1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

In this work asymmetries along with shifts in the line profiles of neutral iron emission lines coming from a laser induced plasma have been detected. The plasma was produced in air at atmospheric pressure on a 50% Fe–Ni alloy and the emission was collected at a temporal window of (2.5, 3) μs. To avoid the effect of spatial inhomogeneity on the profiles, a deconvolution procedure was applied to obtain the spatially resolved emissivity. Asymmetric theoretical Stark profiles, which take into account the effect of static ions, were used to be fitted to the experimental data of the emission profile of the line Fe I 538.34 nm. The fitting of the theoretical profile to the experimental data was carried out by means of the least squares method using genetic algorithms to automatically solve the optimization problem. The correlation coefficient was higher for the asymmetric fits than for the symmetric ones. From the fit, the quasistatic ion broadening parameter α, the electron broadening parameter we, and the total shift of the maximum of the line dt, were obtained. The ion parameter α varied in a range (0.2–0.3) for an electron density between (4–15) × 1016 cm 3. The ion influence on the total broadening was of 15–20%. The total shift varied in the range (0.01–0.06) nm and it was mainly given by the ion shift, the electron shift being negligible. For the electron density range in this work, approximated linear behaviors of the total width and shift with electron density have been obtained.  相似文献

The effects of sample probe insertion on plasma excitation conditions in direct sample insertion-inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (DSI-ICP-AES) were investigated. Graphite sample probes in the form of a cup and a rod (with or without undercut) were used. Molybdenum rods were also used for comparison. A dark central channel is created in the plasma when a sample probe is inserted. The diameter of the central channel correlates with the diameter of the sample probe. In addition, the plasma excitation conditions were monitored using repetitive laser sampling to introduce a steady flow of Zn or Fe particles into the ICP. Changes in the relative excitation temperature and electron number density of the plasma were deduced from the ratios of the emission intensities of Fe line pair and Zn line pair, respectively. The temperature and electron number density of the plasma decreased when a sample probe was inserted. The degree of changes in the plasma conditions depends on the diameter of the sample probes, regardless of the form and material of the probe. The diameter of the sample probe instead of its mass plays a significant role in perturbing the plasma excitation conditions.  相似文献

The emission characteristics of some new 8-(arylazo)-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarins have been studied. Both emission and excitation spectra are pH-dependent and in alkaline media the emission from anionic species becomes dominant with emission maxima at ca 450 nm. The fluorescence quantum yields (φf) have been measured. Unlike many other coumarins, the present compounds give no laser action upon pumping with nitrogen laser (λex = 337.1 nm) presumably because of their low φf values. The excited state acid—base behaviour of some derivatives has also been evaluated.  相似文献
