Abstract
Laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a new type of elemental analytical technology with the advantages of real‐time, online, and noncontact as well as enabling the simultaneous analysis of multiple elements. It has become a frontier analytical technique in spectral analysis. However, the issue of how to improve the accuracy of qualitative and quantitative analyses by extracting useful information from a large amount of complex LIBS data remains the main problem for the LIBS technique. Chemometrics is a chemical subdiscipline of multi‐interdisciplinary methods; it offers advantages in data processing, signal analysis, and pattern recognition. It can solve some complicated problems that are difficult for traditional chemical methods. In this paper, we reviewed the research progress of chemometrics methods in LIBS for spectral data preprocessing as well as for qualitative and quantitative analyses in the most recent 5 years (2012‐2016).

Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy – A geochemical tool for the 21st century

TL;DR: Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a simple, straightforward, and versatile form of atomic emission spectrography that focuses a rapidly-pulsed laser beam onto a sample to form a plasma containing its constituent elements and then uses spectral analysis of the emitted light to detect the elements present as mentioned in this paper.

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Compared to the conventional flame emission spectroscopy, LIBS atomizes only the small portion of the sample by the focused laser pulse, which makes a tiny spark on the sample, and capturing the instant light is a major skill to collect sufficient intensity of the emitting species.

New Procedure for Quantitative Elemental Analysis by Laser-Induced Plasma Spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, a new procedure based on the laser-induced plasma spectroscopy (LIPS) technique was proposed for calibration-free quantitative elemental analysis of materials, which allows the matrix effects to be overcome, yielding precise and accurate quantitative results on elemental composition of materials without use of calibration curves.
