Time-space distribution of laser-induced plasma parameters and its influence on emission spectra of the laser plumes

A physical model is developed accounting for dynamics and radiation of plasma plumes induced by nanosecond laser pulses on surface of solid samples. The model has been applied to simulate emission spectra of the laser erosion plasma at the elemental analysis of metals using single- and double-pulse excitation modes.     

Use of laser ablation in quantitative analysis of the elemental composition of art pigments

The ability to use laser ablation for preparation of art pigment samples in quantitative analysis of their elemental composition by atomic emission spectroscopy of inductively coupled plasma is shown. The proposed technique enables one to eliminate errors associated with both the influence of strong acids and the stoichiometric disruption in a sample.
