Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy, Second Edition includes the basic principles as well as the latest developments in instrumentation and applications of Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). Written by active experts in the field, it serves as a useful resource to analytical chemists and spectroscopists as well as to graduate students and researchers engaged in the fields of combustion, environmental science, and planetary and space exploration. LIBS has rapidly developed into a major analytical technology with the capability of detecting all chemical elements in a sample, of real- time response, and of close-contact or stand-off analysis of targets. It does not require any sample preparation, unlike conventional spectroscopic analytical techniques. Samples in the form of solids, liquids, gels, gases, plasmas and biological materials (like teeth, leaf or blood) can be studied with almost equal ease. This comprehensive reference introduces the topic to readers in a simple, direct, and accessible manner for easy comprehension and maximum utility.This fully revised second edition includes several new chapters on new LIBS techniques as well as several new applications that have emerged, including flame and off-gas measurement, pharmaceutical samples, defense applications, carbon sequestration and site monitoring, handheld instruments, and more.

Covers even more applications of LIBS beyond the first edition, including combustion, soil physics, environment, and life sciences
Includes new chapters on LIBS techniques that have emerged in the last several years, including Femtosecond LIBS and Molecular LIBS
Provides inspiration for future developments in this rapidly growing field in the concluding chapter
