Quantitative Analysis

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy in Biological, Forensic and Materials Sciences

Abstract

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) show great potential for direct sample analysis, as the LIBS spectrum carries important information about sample composition, leading to the possibility of quantitative and qualitative (classification) analytical applications. This chapter overviews the existing approaches for quantitative LIBS analysis based on univariate and multivariate calibration. Many applications of these quantitative approaches to various sample types are also described.
