Double pulse laser ablation and plasma: Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy signal enhancement

TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent results of the studies of double laser pulse plasma and ablation for laser induced breakdown spectroscopy applications is presented, where the authors demonstrate that the maximum effect is obtained at some optimum separation delay time between pulses, which depends on several factors, such as the target material, the energy level of excited states responsible for the emission, and the type of enhancement process considered.
