Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy Group

LIBS is based on the technique in which plasma by the interaction of high power laser pulse with solid, liquids and gases. The laser-induced plasma is a micro- source of light, emitted by excited atomic and ionic species, which is collected by the spectrometer equipped with CCD/ ICCD. The atomic transitions and molecular bands are used for plasma diagnostic and for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of trace elements in closed contact as well at a standoff distance.

Equipment

• Nd: YAG Laser systems
• LIBS System

Recent activities

• Standoff detection of trace level impurities.
• Study of plasma parameters of elements e.g., silicon, germanium etc.
• Qualitative and quantitative analysis of trace elements of different alloys and soil samples.
• Elemental analysis of heavy elements in organic sample (turnip) and the study of their profile.
