TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have shown that low detection limits can be achieved for trace elements like copper, zinc, and calcium in soil samples by using high resolution echelle spectrographs coupled to the LIBS system, and eliminating the background by subtraction of a suitable matrix "blank" spectrum.

TL;DR: In this article, the analytical predictive capability of the laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) system is studied through the correlation of the LIBS determined concentration of nickel alloys with its known value.

TL;DR: In this article, an echelle spectrograph-ICCD system with high sensitivity and good resolution has been assembled, and conditions for getting good quality LIBS spectra and signal for multielemental analysis have been discussed and illustrated.

TL;DR: Using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), quantitative analysis of doped rare earth elements (Lanthanum (La) and Neodymium (Nd)) in phosphors has been studied and reported as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors determined the elemental compositions of synthesized rare earth doped phosphate glasses using a laboratory laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) system, and very good linear regression coefficient (R2) values were obtained using this technique.
