Abstract
A comparative study of single and double pulse laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) using the fundamental (1064 nm) and the second harmonics (532 nm) of Nd:YAG lasers is presented. The double pulse collinear configuration yields more than three hundred times signal enhancement in the singly ionized aluminum lines as compared to the single pulse LIBS spectrum. The effect of interpulse delay between the two laser pulses and the laser pulses energies ratio in the double pulse spectrum are studied. A comparison of variations of plasma parameters along the plume axis in the single and the double pulse has also been studied.
