Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was applied for the characterization of the methane-air laminar diffusion flame, revealing the spatial distribution of its composition. From the measurement, it was found that distribution of the atomic and ionic N emissions produced by the flame had obvious differences, which were mainly distributed in the air area and flame area, respectively. A comparison of the LIBS spectra of air, methane gas, and methane-air laminar diffusion flame showed that the atomic N emissions were mainly produced by the excitation of N2, and the ionic N emissions were more related to the N-containing combustion products. In addition, the correlation between typical emissions and the flame temperature measured by thermocouple was estimated to show that the tendency of the changes in temperature can be characterized by C2 emission intensities. This work provides a new method for real-time online flame temperature measurement, and also provides a reference for revealing the formation process and conversion pathway of each component in the flame.

Laser-Induced breakdown spectroscopy is a powerful diagnostic method that can be applied to combustion systems for measurements of fuel-air ratios, fuel composition, and temperature. In this study, we specifically show the application of LIBS for in-situ flame temperature measurements at conditions up to moderately sooting conditions (equivalence ratio of 15 for methane-air flames). Comparisons with existing data obtained from thermocouple exhibit excellent agreement in weakly sooting flames and good agreement at higher equivalence ratios. The deviation at higher equivalence ratios is attributed to signal trapping due to soot and precursor species and also due to increase in hydrogen spectral signal at these conditions. These are factors that can be circumvented and do not preclude application of LIBS to highly sooting flames.

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a powerful technique for quantitative diagnostics of gases. The spatial resolution of LIBS, however, is limited by the volume of plasma. Here femtosecond-nanosecond dual-pulsed LIBS was demonstrated. Using this method, the breakdown threshold was reduced by 80%, and decay of continuous radiation was shortened. In addition, the volume of the plasma was shrunk by 85% and hence, the spatial resolution of LIBS was significantly improved.

Abstract - Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is one method of atomic emission spectroscopy using laser ablation as an energy source. This method is used to characterize the type of amethysts that originally come from Sukamara, Central Kalimantan. The result of amethyst characterization can be used as a reference for claiming the natural wealth of the amethyst. The amethyst samples are directly taken from the amethyst mining field in the District Gem Amethyst and consist of four color variations: white, black, yellow, and purple. These samples were analyzed by LIBS, using laser energy of 120 mJ, delay time detection of 2 μs and accumulation of 3, with and without cleaning. The purpose of this study is to determine emission spectra characteristics, contained elements, and physical characteristics of each amethyst sample. The spectra show that the amethyst samples contain some elements such as Al, Ca, K, Fe, Gd, Ba, Si, Be, H, O, N, Cl and Pu with various emission intensities. The value of emission intensity corresponds to concentration of element in the sample. Hence, the characteristics of the amethysts are based on their concentration value. The element with the highest concentration in all samples is Si, which is related to the chemical formula of SiO2. The element with the lowest concentration in all samples is Ca that is found in black and yellow amethysts. The emission intensity of Fe element can distinguish between white, purple, and yellow amethyst. If Fe emission intensity is very low, it indicates yellow sample. Thus, we may conclude that LIBS is a method that can be used to characterize the amethyst samples.Key words: amethyst, impurity, laser-induced, breakdown spectroscopy, characteristic, gemstones
