Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of isotope ratios using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy in ambient air at atmospheric pressure for nuclear forensics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a Partial Least Square (PLS1) regression to determine the isotope ratio between 0 and 1 mass fraction for hydrogen and uranium isotope shift lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser-Ultrasonics: From the Laboratory to the Shop Floor
Jean-Pierre Monchalin,C. Néron,Jean F. Bussière,Paul Bouchard,Christian Padioleau,René Héon,Marc Choquet,Jean-Daniel Aussel,Gérard Durou,John A. Nilson +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ultrasound for inspecting and characterizing industrial materials, which not only can detect bulk and surface flaws, but also obtain information on material microstructure, which determines engineering properties, such as elastic moduli and ultimate strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of a compact high power pulsed fiber laser source for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the potential of a fast growing laser technology, the fiber laser, in the field of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of gold in rock samples using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy: Matrix and heterogeneity effects
Kheireddine Rifai,Kheireddine Rifai,Marcel Laflamme,Marc Constantin,François Vidal,Mohamad Sabsabi,Alain Blouin,Paul Bouchard,Konstantinos Fytas,Maryline Castello,Blandine Nguegang Kamwa +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technique was used to determine the concentration of gold in rock samples, and a chemometric study based on the principal component analysis (PCA) showed that ~83% of the LIBS spectra variations are attributable to the presence of iron in the samples.
Book ChapterDOI
Laser-Ultrasonics for Industrial Applications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a piezoelectric resonator to generate and receive ultrasound for defect detection in various materials and applied it for micro-structural characterization.
