HIGH-RESOLUTION LASER INDUCED BREAKDOWN SPECTROSCOPY DEVICES AND METHODS

摘要

Provided are laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) devices. Embodiments of the devices are configured to obtain a spatial resolution of 10 µm or less. Also provided are methods of using the subject LIBS devices to determine whether one or more elements of interest are present in a target sample. The devices and methods find use in a variety of applications, e.g., submicron and nanoscale chemical analysis applications.
