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.
