Abstract

The design and the operation of the LASMA instrument combining laser ablation with time-of-flight mass analysis is briefly described. The application to the analysis of multielement metal samples and non-conducting powder mixtures of known composition reveals the LASMA technique to be a semi-quantitative method for elemental bulk analysis with a detection limit around 50 μg/g in a mass range up to 250 amu.
