Abstract

The effect of laser wavelength on the selective vaporization of a metal sample was studied. Four different wavelengths of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser were employed for laser irradiation. All measurements were conducted in He atmosphere of 400 Pa. The exposure time of the detector was 19 ms. The emission signal was directly collected by an optical fiber. Among the found lasers, the 266-nm wavelength laser effectively obtained the LIPS emission intensity of the brass alloy with a high precision.
