Abstract

ABSTRACT In the present work, we report spectroscopic studies of laser-induced plasmas produced by focusing the second harmonic (532 nm) of a Nd:YAG laser onto the laminar flow of a liquid containing chromium. The plasma temperature is determined from the coupled Saha–Boltzmann plot and the electron density is evaluated from the Stark broadening of an ionic line of chromium [Cr(II)] at 267.7 nm. Our results reveal a decrease in plasma temperature with an increase in Cr concentration up to a certain concentration level; after that, it becomes approximately constant, while the electron density increases with an increase in analyte (Cr) concentration in liquid matrix.
