Abstract Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) in the last decades has become a promising analytical technique for a broad variety of archeological objects with great results obtained either alone or in combination with complementary techniques. It is mainly advantageous due to no sample preparation, minimally destructive, rapid analysis and depth profiling analysis spur LIBS technique to become a significant attractive technique for the characterization and conservation of archeological samples or artworks. The present paper describes in brief the basic principles and instrumentation of LIBS, and reviews several case studies on metallic alloys, ceramic, glass, painted artworks, historical buildings and biomaterials in the most recent 7 years (2011–2017) that demonstrate the applicability and prospects of LIBS in the field of archeological science.

考古科学中的激光诱导击穿光谱：对其应用和未来前景的回顾

摘要 在过去的几十年中，激光诱导击穿光谱 (LIBS) 已成为一种有前途的分析技术，可用于广泛的考古对象，单独或与补充技术相结合都获得了很好的结果。它的主要优势在于无需样品制备、破坏性最小、快速分析和深度剖面分析，这促使 LIBS 技术成为表征和保护考古样品或艺术品的重要技术。本文简要介绍了 LIBS 的基本原理和仪器，并回顾了关于金属合金、陶瓷、玻璃、彩绘艺术品、
