Abstract

A small chamber in brass has been developed in order to enhance the sensitivity of single-pulse Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for element determination in air. Its use results in an increase of a factor of 3 and 10 for As and Fe signals detected in the UV range (230–240 nm).
