Abstract Despite well-established advantages and a growing number of applications, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) still fails to be recognized as a robust analytical technique, especially because many factors varying from an experimental setup to the other are preventing from any inter-comparison. The present paper is a guideline for increasing the quality of the LIBS analyses through a series of good practices, assessments and reporting along five key-steps being: i) monitoring of the LIBS signal, ii) optimization of the measurement conditions, iii) data filtering, iv) sorting, and v) quantification. This guideline offers an opportunity to increase the quality of the LIBS analysis and represents a significant step towards a standardization process. In addition, it allows comparing intra as well as inter-laboratory LIBS results.

提高激光诱导击穿光谱分析质量的指南

摘要 尽管激光诱导击穿光谱 (LIBS) 具有公认的优势和越来越多的应用，但仍然没有被认为是一种强大的分析技术，特别是因为从实验设置到其他不同的许多因素都阻止了任何相互影响。比较。本文件是通过一系列良好实践、评估和报告提高 LIBS 分析质量的指导方针，包括五个关键步骤：i) LIBS 信号的监测，ii) 测量条件的优化，iii) 数据过滤，iv) 排序，和 v) 量化。该指南提供了一个提高 LIBS 分析质量的机会，代表了朝着标准化过程迈出的重要一步。此外，它还允许比较实验室内和实验室间 LIBS 结果。
