“…A review entitled “The assets of laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for the future of heritage science ” was presented by Detalle and Bai. 309 The review had 171 references and covered the period 2015–2020. It started by presenting data on the geographical areas from which the LIBS papers originate, the materials it has been used to characterise (with textiles, ceramics, metals and paintings being the most common) before giving some theory.…”

“…Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), a rapid chemical analysis technology, has attracted great interest from researchers because of its ability to perform contactless, fast online analysis of any material 1 – 3 So far, LIBS has been used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of elemental compositions from different types of sites. In the fields of geological exploration, 4 – 7 coal analysis, 8 – 10 preservation of cultural relics, 11 , 12 archeology, 13 , 14 food safety, 15 , 16 and other fields, LIBS has shown great advantages of in situ measurement.…”

The portable laser is indispensable for handheld laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) instruments. We developed a passive, Q-switched pulsed, Nd:YAG laser system with small size and low cost. The maximum pulse energy of the laser was 10 mJ and the pulse duration was <2 ns. The peak power was >5 MW. The laser exhibited very high stability without any cooling system and its relative standard deviation of the pulse energy was <0.2%. The laser was also used as a light source of LIBS to measure the concentrations of Cr, Cu, Mn, and Ni in alloys. The experimental results show that the determination coefficient of the calibration curves for these four elements is all better than 0.99. For its shorter pulse duration, the laser can decrease the plasma shield effect to improve the coupling of laser pulse and the target and stability of spectra intensity. The portable laser developed is a good laser source for handheld LIBS instruments.

“…[3][4][5][6][7] Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is one analytical technique increasing in use for archaeological and cultural heritage object analysis. 8 XRF spectrometry has certainly been the more commonplace choice for elemental analyses of these often-precious samples considering its nondestructive nature. LIBS has some advantages over XRF spectrometry, however, including better detection limits for many of the lighter elements and significantly shorter analysis times.…”

Handheld laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was applied to two studies of archaeological material at excavation sites in the Orvieto (Umbria), Italy geographic region. The short analysis times and wide range of detectable elements, covering both metals and nonmetals, achievable via LIBS played a central role in successfully exploring research questions specific to the analyzed artifacts. For one study, associations among Roman terraced walls at the Coriglia excavation site were established through comparisons among lime mortar elemental compositions measured in situ. New conclusions regarding construction phases were achieved, and agreement between handheld LIBS and handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry results was established. Secondly, Etruscan bucchero pottery was examined to explore relationships among fabric color (gray and black), excavation site (Cavità 254 and Crocifisso del Tufo), and elemental composition. Differences were found and are discussed as they relate to ceramic production and object purpose. Principal component analysis was applied for data analysis in both studies.
