| Abstract: | Abstract: Simple- and double-pulse laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy was studied on aluminum samples at atmospheric pressure in air. The double-pulse experiments were carried out in the orthogonal beam geometry in two different ways: the reheating scheme and the pre-ablation spark dual-pulse scheme. An ablation laser emitting at 532 nm was combined with a second laser operating at 1064 nm according to the orthogonal geometry. For both schemes, the influence of the delay between the two laser pulses was investigated. In particular, different optima of interpulse delays were determined, underlying the differences of physical mechanisms involved in both processes. The estimation of the plasma temperatures provided explanations on the signal increases for both schemes. Whatever the configuration developed in the orthogonal geometry, a correlation between the increases in emission lines intensities and their excitation energy levels was established in the double-pulse approach. Besides, the effect of laser energy for both pulses was studied so as to make comparisons of the different configurations at the same total laser energy. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
