: A laser pulse "ablates" (removes a tiny bit of) the sample surface, creating a high-temperature plasma.

This text refers to , a powerful chemical analysis technique often called a "superstar" in green analytical chemistry. It is used to determine the elemental composition of materials by using a high-focused laser to create a tiny plume of plasma. Core Fundamentals Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy: Fundament...

: It provides results in seconds and works on solids, liquids, or gases with virtually no sample preparation. Why It Is "Interesting" : A laser pulse "ablates" (removes a tiny
