ISOTOPIC ANALYSIS METHOD USING OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY ON LASER-GENERATED PLASMA

摘要

DESCRIPTIVE Isotopic analysis process by optical emission spectrometry on laser-produced plasma. According to the invention, the sample to be analyzed (10) is irradiated by a laser beam (20) to produce a plasma (13), the light spectrum emitted by said plasma is analyzed and from it is deduced the isotopic composition of the sample. Application to isotopic analysis in the nuclear industry. (Fig. 1)
