Application of emission spectrometer with laser sampler to microanalysis of pigments from Hubert Robert’s canvas painting

Gold organosols for multicomponent surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy analysis of paintings

“…For example, chromatographic techniques could be implemented for binder's type identification . Laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) or X‐ray diffraction could be used for elemental composition study of inorganic materials . However, the results obtained could be disputable because of the possibility of detecting the same chemical elements in different pigments.…”

Spatial confinement of laser-induced plasma to enhance LIBS sensitivity for trace elements determination in soils

“…The feasibility of producing laser sparks in bulk or onto the surface of both conducting and non-conducting materials permits the analysis of a wide range of samples from metals and alloys 4 to fluid and gaseous inclusions in solids. 5 The relatively small size of laser craters allows to conduct virtually nondestructive analysis on art works 6 and cultural heritage targets. 7 This laser micro-sampling makes possible both local analysis (with resolution up to 10 mm) and depth profiling (with resolution up to 10 nm) of various coatings 8 and composite materials.…”
