Determination of detection limits for elements in water by femtosecond laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
Published in Journal of Applied Spectroscopy
We have evaluated the feasibility of using femtosecond laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy with time-resolved detection of the spectra for determination of trace concentrations of chemical elements in water. The laser plasma was generated on the surface of aqueous solutions by a single pulse from a titanium:sapphire laser (pulse duration 40 fs, pu...
